Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Investigators will conduct a randomized controlled evaluation of standard nutrition education vs. standard education + Nutri, and interactive clinical software that automates diet assessment and guides resident physicians through personalized and evidence-based diet counseling. Investigators will evaluate differences in resident-reported diet counseling competence and self-efficacy using survey measures. Investigators will evaluate skills using a simulated patient appointment and coding scheme described in prior work.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Nutri Training

Nutri Training will begin with 1) a presentation of diet counseling evidence and best practices for advising patients, along with information about nutrition recommendations for patients with chronic illness and 2) tools supporting the patient for follow-up. This content will be delivered via a live demonstration of the Nutri interactive software and case demonstration, a novel approach to delivering the learning objectives of standard nutrition education for residents.
