ABSTRACT
We used a new cardiology simulator twice to train lst-year medical residents in physical examination with a specific behavioral objective shortly after they had received their medical licenses. The first training sessions were to teach residents to understand normal heart sounds and to perform physical examinations in the proper order; the second training sessions were to teach recognition of abnormal heart sounds and murmurs. After the first training sessions, all residents could perform physical examinations in the proper order with special attention to the jugular vein, differentiation of systole and diastole by palpating the carotid artery, splitting of S2, and the timing and transmission of heart murmurs. Just after the second training sessions, all residents thought that their physical examination skills and ability to recognize abnormal heart sounds and murmurs had improved. One year later, the residents were accustomed to performing physical examination in the proper order and could recognize gallop rhythms and murmurs of grade 3/6 or higher. Repeated training with specific behavioral objectives could motivate residents to understand both normal and abnormal heat sounds and murmurs.
