= 0.001), ENT (18.64 ± 0.48, p = 0.001), and Anesthesiology (19.64 ± 0.48, p = 0.001). In contrast, clinical skills declined significantly after the Obstetrics & Gynecology rotation (17.47 ± 0.50, p = 0.001), suggesting reduced reinforcement of airway management competencies during this posting. Participants demonstrated a sustained increase in self-reported clinical competence and confidence in airway management across successive training milestones, with improvements maintained until the completion of internship. Conclusion The ECLS training program significantly enhanced medical interns' knowledge and practical skills in airway management. Competencies were largely retained or further improved during subsequent clinical rotations with regular exposure to airway management. However, a decline in performance following rotations with limited airway-related clinical experience highlights the need for periodic refresher training and targeted booster sessions to ensure sustained competency throughout internship.
