Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome will be the progression of participants’ knowledge in cardiac auscultation. It will be evaluated on the basis of the difference between the participants’ knowledge score in the post-test and the participants’ knowledge score in the pre-test.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The progression of participants’ skills in cardiac auscultation (based on the difference between the participants’ skill score in the post-test and the participants’ skill score in the pre-test);The total progression of participants’ knowledge and skills in cardiac auscultation (based on the difference between the total score obtained by the participants in the post-test and the total score obtained in the pre-test);The learners’ satisfaction with the use of each of these learning methods
