Table 5

Preference for training in ATLS surgical skills considering all factors.

Participants	Porcine Model (%, 𝑛)	TraumaMan preference (%, 𝑛)
Student (𝑛=18)	22% (4)	78% (14)
Teacher (𝑛=14)	7% (1)	93% (13)
Overall (𝑛=32)	16% (5)	84% (27)

𝑃=0.0043 by Fisher Exact Test comparing TraumaMan to the porcine model.
