The embryo and fetus are generally studied using ultrasound imaging in pregnancy; however, ultrasound wave is absorbed by biological tissues to elevate the temperature. The growing embryonic and fetal tissue tends to be damaged by heating; thus, excess heating that damages young sensitive growing tissue should be prevented in ultrasound diagnosis.
The benefi ts and uses of ultrasound (US) are well documented for procedural and diagnostic purposes. A number of studies have evaluated the utility of simulation-based US training in achieving competency and improving safety. To the best of our knowledge, no previous studies have attempted to synthesize the effectiveness of US simulation in Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB GYN) education using…
