Off-script Diagnosis & Differential Diagnosis (D&D) Training and Residents' Stroke Knowledge

Effectiveness of Off-script Diagnosis & Differential Diagnosis (D&D) Training in Improving Residents' Competence in Acute Ischemic Stroke Diagnosis and Treatment

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

This study is a single-center, randomized, open-label, controlled, endpoint-blinded study to assess the effect of off-script diagnosis \& differential diagnosis (D\&D) training in improving the residents' knowledge of acute ischemic stroke in China. The investigators will enroll 22 residents and assess the score of mASMaQ 30 days after randomization.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: 1. Residents (physicians in postgraduate training). 2. Currently in neurology wards 3. Managing acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients, defined as: 1)Time from onset to randomization ≤ 2 weeks; 2) If onset time is unknown, the last known well time is considered the onset time. 4. Signed willing to sign a consent form Who Should NOT Join This Trial: 1. Managing asymptomatic ischemic stroke patients. 2. Residents who are currently participating or have participated in another interventional ischemic stroke training program within the past 3 months. Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
