An Alternative to Traditional Bedside Teaching During COVID-19: High-Fidelity Simulation-Based Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Bedside teaching is integral to medical education and has been highlighted to improve clinical and communication skills, as well as clinical reasoning. Despite the significant advantages of bedside teaching, its usage within medical education has been declining, and COVID-19 has added additional challenges.
