The objective of this study was to develop and assess impact of a capacity building program utilizing clinical teaching and simulation to enhance knowledge and skills of residents at a healthcare facility in India.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A training program comprising of 14 modules on basic obstetric ultrasounds was created over 3\u2009months. These modules, validated by fetal medicine experts, underwent a pilot study for face validity. A total of 18 newly enrolled junior residents without prior ultrasound experience were recruited. A two\u2010day workshop included interactive module sessions and 6\u2009h and 30\u2009min of hands\u2010on training using an obstetric simulator. Pre\u2010 and post\u2010tests consisting of 50 multiple\u2010choice questions (MCQs) assessed knowledge. Follow\u2010up assessments were carried out at 1 and 3\u2009months. Skill assessment at the third month was conducted using an objective structured practical examination (OSPE), alongside image submission by residents.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>There was significant improvement in marks over time, with a mean pretest score of 24\u2009\u00b1\u20092.7 out of 50 marks, post\u2010test score of 36.81\u2009\u00b1\u20092.86 and stable scores (34.6\u2009\u00b1\u20093.21, 34.4\u2009\u00b1\u20092.96) during follow\u2010up reviews. OSPE scores at third month averaged at 21.47\u2009\u00b1\u20092.3 (maximum marks 30); image assessment scores averaged at 83\u2009\u00b1\u20098.62 (maximum marks 100). Participant feedback indicated a positive response to all program aspects (practicality, content and structured training).
