About this study
Official title: Objective Assessment of Live-streaming Vs Face-to-face Teaching Method Effectiveness in Training Simple Wound Suturing Skill to Surgical Clerkship
The goal of this observational study is to assess objectively whether teaching for simple wound sutures via Live-Streaming (LS) using Go-pro® has the same effectiveness as the traditional Face-to-face (FTF) teaching. The main question it aims to answer is whether training simple wound suturing skills to surgical clerkships via LS has the same effectiveness as the FTF training.
After initially doing pre-test, participants will be randomized into two groups: LS and FTF. After teaching exposure, the participants will be given 1 week period of self-training to master the skill (as such procedural skills require a period of self training before we examine the effect of teaching exposure). Afterwards, they underwent post-test again with the previously same examiner, using the same OSCE rubric to avoid bias. Researchers will compare if the LS and FTF groups to see if training simple wound suturing skills to surgical clerkships via LS has the same effectiveness as the FTF training.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Face-to-faceOther
FTF group are participants who will learn simple sutures physically present with the instructor in the same room.
Live-streamingOther
One general surgeon (FH) will teach the participants how to do simple sutures on a mannequin, starting by explaining, then doing a live-demo step-by-step of simple wound suturing. The instructor uses a GoPro Hero 8 device on her head which is connected to the internet and produced live-streaming video, which will then be watched by LS group.

|---|---|---|
| Face-to-face | Active comparator | Face-to-face teaching method Receives: Other: Face-to-face |
| Live-streaming | Experimental | Live-streaming teaching method Receives: Other: Live-streaming |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Post-test Scores
Post-test Objective Structured Clinical Exam (OSCE) scores Value ranges from 0 to 60. Higher score means better outcome, and vice versa.
Measured: 1 week after teaching
Secondary outcomes (1)
Numerical Differences of Pre-test and Post-test (Delta)
Numerical differences of Pre- and Post-Objective Structured Clinical Exam (OSCE) scores (Delta) Value ranges from -60 to 60. Higher numerical difference means better outcome, and vice versa.
Measured: 1 week after teaching

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Face-to-face and Live-streaming in people with Teaching Method, run by Pelita Harapan University at 1 site in Indonesia.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Indonesia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Post-test Scores (time frame: 1 week after teaching). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06221917, which also lists 6 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Nov 2024.
