To study the effectiveness of low-fidelity ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block training interventions score in knowledge and skills performance among junior doctors in the Department of Emergency Medicine Universiti Sains Malaysia, with the aim of assessing its mean.
1\. To compare the mean score of knowledge of junior doctors in performing ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block in the emergency department pre and post training simulation. 2\. To compare the mean score of skills of junior doctors in performing ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block in the emergency department pre and post training simulation. 3\. To determine the impact of the low-fidelity, low-cost bovine meat-based simulation model for ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block training on confidence among junior doctors working in the emergency department

This intervention involves a low-fidelity simulation-based training on ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block (UGFNB) using a bovine meat model. Participants receive a brief lecture followed by a hands-on skills session. The training focuses on anatomical identification, ultrasound imaging, and nerve block technique using the simulated model. Knowledge and skill performance are assessed through multiple-choice questions and an OSCE before and after the intervention.

Change in knowledge score before and after training
Knowledge will be assessed using a validated 10-item multiple choice questionnaire. Total score ranges from 0 to 10.
Time frame: Immediately before and after the intervention (within same day)
Change in procedural skill score (OSCE) before and after training
Skill will be assessed using a structured 7-domain OSCE checklist. Total score ranges from 0 to 20.
Time frame: Immediately before and after the intervention
