AI assistant trains future anesthesiologists in nerve block ultrasound
NCT ID NCT06667401
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether an artificial intelligence (AI) device could help teach anesthesiology residents how to perform ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia. Twenty residents with no prior experience in this area used the AI tool and then filled out a questionnaire about their experience. The goal was to see if the AI made teaching and learning easier.
