Implication

Randomized controlled trial reveals mixed methods education improves knowledge of diagnostic errors in medical students, indicating teaching style impacts learning outcomes.

Key Points

To compare the effectiveness of video-based and paper-based case studies in reducing diagnostic errors among medical students.
Mixed-method, non-blinded randomized controlled trial
Participants included 113 Japanese medical students
Provided either video-based or paper-based materials for diagnostic error cases
Knowledge and beliefs assessed pre- and post-intervention
Analysis was conducted using analysis of covariance
Video-based group reported greater improvement in self-perceived knowledge about diagnostic errors
No significant between-group difference after adjusting for baseline scores
Seventeen themes related to learning were identified, highlighting immersive learning and diverse perspectives
Video-based instruction enhanced recognition of high-risk diseases and red-flag situations
