Implication

Randomized trial demonstrates improved clinical competency in managing hematuria among urology clerkship students, suggesting enhanced educational methods are effective.

Key Points

This research aims to develop a teaching program for hematuria management and evaluate its effectiveness in transferring clinical competency among urology clerkship students.
Quasi-experimental controlled study with 80 urology clerkship students (40 intervention, 40 control).
Data collected from weekly tests, case presentations, comprehensive scores, and a modified OSCE.
Statistical analyses included Welch-corrected t-tests and covariate-adjusted linear regression.
Intervention group had a higher mean weekly test score (94.09 vs. 86.50, P < 0.001) and slightly higher case presentation scores (7.39 vs. 7.14, P = 0.045).
Significantly higher OSCE total score in intervention group (85.39 vs. 80.00, P < 0.001) with a beta of 5.56 after adjustments, indicating improved competency transfer.
