cord-356288-zaspyveg	Giroux, Maria	A randomized comparison of training programs using a pelvic model designed to enhance pelvic floor examination in patients presenting with chronic pelvic pain	2020-09-08		.txt	text/plain	3676	192	46	The purpose of this study was to compare in-person versus video-based teaching methods of a comprehensive assessment of the pelvic floor musculature on a pelvic model. Secondary outcome measures were perceived changes in both participants' comfort level in performing pelvic floor examination and applicability of the training program to clinical practice. This study demonstrates no significant difference in the effectiveness between video-based and in-person training for teaching the assessment of the pelvic floor musculature to identify a possible muscular cause or contribution to chronic pelvic pain using a pelvic model. Improvements in written assessment scores, OSCE scores, and perceived comfort level were comparable between the video-based and in-person groups, suggesting that video-based training may be an efficient and cost-effective means to teach concepts surrounding pelvic pain to medical learners and physicians. However, there was no statistically significant difference between video-based and in-person teaching methods in degree of improvement of participants' performance and perceived comfort level with examination of the pelvic floor musculature.	./cache/cord-356288-zaspyveg.txt	./txt/cord-356288-zaspyveg.txt
