Study summary

Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment

Model Description: Cluster-randomized by preceptor (30 clusters; 15 OMP/15 control). Outcomes at student level; 15 students per cluster.

Adequate OMP exposure is defined a priori as ≥2 structured OMP feedback encounters (≥5 minutes each) delivered across ≥2 separate weeks of the rotation.

Inclusion criteria

  • A. Student participants (outcome level):

Aged ≥18 years at enrollment.

Enrolled Year 4-medical students assigned to one of the participating preceptor-led bedside teaching groups during the study period.

Expected to attend the rotation for 8-12 weeks (or the site's standard rotation length).

Able to provide (and agree to be observed/assessed via mini-CEX).

- B. Preceptor clusters (randomized units):

Resident physicians serving as bedside teaching preceptors in participating departments.

Will supervise approximately 15 students during the study period.

Agree not to cross over to teach students in the opposite trial arm during the trial period.

Able to attend OMP training and permit fidelity observation (checklist) if allocated to the intervention.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • A. Student participants:

Prior exposure to formal OMP-based teaching within the past 6 months in the same department.

Not expected to remain on the rotation long enough to be assessed (e.g., planned absence >2 weeks or early withdrawal).

Declines or withdraws .

Severe communication barrier that precludes valid assessment (e.g., language barrier without support).

- B. Preceptor clusters:

Formal OMP training within the past 12 months (to avoid contamination), or role as an OMP trainer for other faculty during the study period.

Planned cross-coverage that would result in teaching students from both arms during the trial period.

Anticipated extended leave making fidelity and outcome assessments infeasible.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise (mini-CEX) Total Score

    Total score on the mini-CEX, ranging from 1 to 5. Higher scores indicate better bedside teaching performance as rated by student participants. Measure Type: Continuous.

    Time frame: 8 - 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Student Satisfaction Score

    Description: Student satisfaction with bedside teaching will be measured using a Likert-scale questionnaire specifically developed for this study. The total score ranges from 1 to 5, where higher scores indicate greater satisfaction with the teaching encounter. Measure Type: Continuous. Unit of Measure: Score (1-5)

    Time frame: 8-12 weeks
