Workshop sessions included a 15-min teaching session and a 40-min hands-on session covering POCUS fundamental skills. Pre- and post-workshop participant and instructor questionnaires assessed educational merit using three domains of Bloom\u2019s taxonomy: knowledge, confidence and skill. Statistical analysis with Wilcoxon signed-rank tests was used to compare pre- and post-workshop scores for paired Likert-type scale responses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Thirty-nine participants were included, the majority of which were resident doctors (74.3%) with minimal exposure to ultrasound. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests demonstrated statistically significant improvement across all three Bloom\u2019s domains (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.01). All attendees considered POCUS a valuable addition to clinical practice and indicated a willingness to continue their learning. Instructor post-workshop skill assessments categorised attendees as proficient-to-expert with respect to ergonomics, scanning and image interpretation.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>POCUS is increasingly being shown to augment clinical examination and improve patient flow and outcomes. As such, there is an unmet demand from resident doctors to learn this skill. We demonstrate that structured, near-peer POCUS workshop teaching for resident doctors can result in significant short-term skill improvement and educational merit, suggesting justification for its formal implementation within UK postgraduate curricula.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1742271x261453601","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,9]],"date-time":"2026-07-09T06:24:42Z","timestamp":1783578282000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Evaluating the impact of a Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) workshop on medical trainees at a Radiology Resident Forum conference: A pre- and post-intervention study"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4146-5800","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Reem","family":"El-Hayani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, Watford General Hospital, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-2096-0025","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Misha Winnona","family":"Mostofa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Holt Doctors Ltd, Skipton, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4857-5140","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yujia","family":"Gao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Addenbrooke\u2019s Hospital, Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-8467-6441","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Muhammad Salman","family":"Rafique","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Basildon University Hospital, Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-2672-6212","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sajjan","family":"Mann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Medical School, University of Bristol, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-1815-3922","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Muhammad Aqib","family":"Maqsood","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Medical School, University of Bristol, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3654-087X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lien Meara","family":"Salcedo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Basildon University Hospital, Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3002-4532","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kasim","family":"Alimohamed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Guy\u2019s and St Thomas\u2019 NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raima","family":"Kaleemi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre, Karachi, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-8931-6862","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sadiyah","family":"Raquib","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Basildon University Hospital, Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-8708-8079","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yusuf","family":"Chowdhury","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Basildon University Hospital, Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4516-3589","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Imran","family":"Syed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Basildon University Hospital, Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/medicina59122179"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15441\/ceem.23.101"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13049-022-01017-1"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11739-022-03126-2"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13089-023-00356-z"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","article-title":"Focused assessment with sonography for trauma in predicting early surgical intervention in hemodynamically unstable children with blunt abdominal trauma","volume":"3","author":"Long MK","year":"2022","unstructured":"Long MK, Vohra MK, Bonnette A, et al.
