Abstract

Background

Video review is widely recognized as an effective method for teaching communication; however, it can increase educators' workload and learners' stress.

Methods

We utilized Tsucom, an online platform developed by BonBon, Inc., which enables asynchronous video communication instead of traditional styles. An 11‐min and 42‐s consultation video from a fifth‐year resident was uploaded, and 10 physicians provided 30 text‐based feedback.

Results

In this pilot survey, the utility and ease of use were rated 4.4 and 4.1 out of 5, respectively.

Conclusions

While asynchronous online video reviews provided flexibility and greater participation, challenges remain, and further trials and evaluations were deemed necessary.
