About this trial

This single-center randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Case-Based Learning (CBL) compared with traditional teaching in clinical training of bedside lung ultrasound (BLUE) for emergency medicine residents and medical students. The hypothesis is that CBL improves theoretical understanding, practical ultrasound skills, and clinical reasoning in emergency settings.
