Abstract :Objective: Our study aimed to test whether a one-hour short training model for Focused Assessment with Sonography in Trauma insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(FAST); training would increase the visual skills of paramedics who had no previous training in this field. Material and Method: Our study was planned as a prospective, uncontrolled experimental study. A short training module was applied to 27 paramedics who were inexperienced in E-FAST Ultrasonography insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(USG);. The first test was applied and the final test was applied after the training and their success in distinguishing normal and pathological case images was evaluated. Results: 55.6% of the participants were women, 74.1% were new graduates, and their average age was 21.58 ± 9.60 years. When the answers given by the participants to the first test and the last test were evaluated; While 31.9% of the participants answered \`I did not understand\` to many questions in the first test, after the training, it was seen that 82.9% could form ideas for all tests. When the correct response rates of the participants to the first test and the last test were examined, a statistically significant increase was observed insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p <0.001);. Conclusion: In our study, the skills of paramedics who had no E-FAST USG experience in distinguishing between normal and abnormal case images increased significantly after the training, and their success was observed to increase statistically significantly.
