Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

Competency Assessment Form
This form was developed by the Primary Investigator to objectively measure a student's ability to take a manual blood pressure reading following the established guidelines of the American Heart Association.
When the student is performing the blood pressure measurement which will span approximately 15-20 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (2)

Pre-Measurement Student Survey
10 minute survey given prior to participating in the study to both groups of students
Post-Measurement Student Survey
10 minute survey given following participation in the study to both groups of students

Other Outcomes (2)

Medical History Form
This will be completed by patients who will have their blood pressure measured by students. The estimated time frame for completion is 15 minutes
Post-Measurement Patient Survey
The is completed after blood pressure measurement and may take up to 15 minutes

Study Arms (2)

Group 1

EXPERIMENTAL

Group 1 will include first year Physical Therapy students who will be trained for Blood Pressure (BP) measurement using a brief powerpoint lecture, completion of an interactive BP measurement module from the American Medical Association which includes a quiz assessment and certificate of completion, and a competency examination during the lab portion of class.

Other: Multi-component teaching content

Group 2

NO INTERVENTION

Group 2 consists of second year PT students who only had a powerpoint lecture on Blood Pressure measurement that was done virtually with no lab component or American Medical Association interactive module training.

Interventions

Multi-component teaching contentOther

The students assigned to Group 1 will undergo interactive module training by the American Medical Association which outlines how to properly measure blood pressure manually following the American Heart Association guidelines. Following completion of the module, students will be presented with a powerpoint lecture by the Primary Investigator on Blood Pressure. Students will then undergo a competency examination that assesses their ability to measure blood pressure following the guidelines of the American Heart Association.
