Abstract

Purpose
This study aimed to measure the educational satisfaction with and effectiveness of real-time online point-of-view filming (POVF) clinical skills education in medical students.
Methods
Medical students participated in a 120-minute clinical skills education session. The session consisted of emergency procedures, wound management, and vascular access. The authors provided real-time online POVF using a smartphone. A questionnaire survey was issued to the students after the class, and their satisfaction with education, educational environment, and effectiveness were analyzed.
Results
Responses about satisfaction with POVF education were very positive in all grades. However, approximately half of the students were satisfied with the smoothness of listening to a lecture and the video quality. More than half of the students responded positively to the question about educational effectiveness.
Conclusion
In these times of non-classroom teaching brought on by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, POVF clinical skills education is likely to be a very useful educational tool. If disadvantages such as insufficient feedback or environmental problems can be addressed, it could serve as an alternative method of clinical skills education even after the COVID-19 pandemic.
