Abstract
AGUERA, Alfonso; JUMILLA, José and FERNANDEZ-VILLACANAS, Miguel A. Eco-FAST. Pilot learning by second year medical students, University of Murcia. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2018, vol.21, n.6, pp.305-308. Epub Aug 16, 2021. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.216.974.
Aim:
To assimilate the knowledge taught in the Splachnology subject by using the sonographical FAST protocol.
Subjects and methods:
Our teacher proposed us designing a theoretical-practical course for a number of 72 second year Medicine students, which was developed again the next academic year. At the end of the course they received an online survey with different items to evaluate the knowledge acquired and the course preparation.
Results:
The overall experience and pursue of concrete anatomical objectives was successful. Furthermore, the interest on sonography and self-confidence of the participants improved.
Conclusions:
It is demonstrated that an activity as such, with a way more practical approach than other courses taught in preclinical studies, can be undertaken with ease and at the same time achieve a further consolidation of the knowledge taught in Anatomy subjects until now.
