Ultrasound training in undergraduate medical education is developing, and its incorporation into the curriculum requires careful planning.

Because false-negative EFAST scans can affect patients' clinical outcomes, it is essential to evaluate the individual components of this skill. We aim to determine which EFAST components students perform sub-optimally after initial training.
