II. Summary:
In the study by Johannink et al. (2023), the authors explored the successful
implementation of video-transmitted ward rounds in medical education, particularly
focusing on surgical ward rounds. They found that this digital format was technically
feasible, well-accepted by students, and led to a significant improvement in students'
surgical ward round competencies. The study emphasized the importance of structured
teaching methods in developing skills for effective communication and interaction during
ward rounds.
