摘要：

Background: The Trauma Evaluation and Management (TEAM) module orients medical students to the initial assessment of an injured patient. At the Medical College of Wisconsin, a course based on expanded TEAM (eTEAM) was developed for junior medical students. This study determined whether eTEAM improved the ability to perform and retain primary survey skills. Methods: Objective Structured Clinical Examination methodology was used to compare 2 groups of senior medical students I year after receiving either a 2-hour lecture or eTEAM. Results: Students receiving eTEAM performed the primary survey much better than those receiving lecture alone. The overall Objective Structured Clinical Examination scores did not differ between groups. Conclusions: Medical students participating in eTEAM retained the ability to perform a primary survey in proper sequence I year later better than students receiving the information in lecture format only.
