3D-Printed hearts vs. slides: which teaches Doctors-in-Training better?

NCT ID NCT07295730

Summary

This study tested whether 3D-printed heart models or augmented reality (AR) could help first-year medical students learn about complex heart defects better than traditional slide-based lectures. Twenty-six students were split into three groups to learn using slides, 3D models, or AR, and took tests before, after, and three weeks later to measure their understanding. The goal was to find the best tools to improve how future doctors are trained to recognize these serious conditions.
