NCT ID NCT07722520
First seen Jul 23, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether adding role-play video demonstrations to an online course helps fifth-year medical students at Ain Shams University learn doctor-team communication skills. One group receives the standard online course, while the other also watches recorded videos showing key teamwork scenarios. Researchers will compare students' exam scores and satisfaction to see if the videos make a difference.
