Case Study: Baylor College of Medicine achieves improved retention of critical clinical knowledge with Qstream

Mobile Solution Helps Medical Residents Improve Retention of Critical Knowledge

Qstream partnered with Baylor College of Medicine to address a common problem in medical training: residents rotate through several week‑long subspecialty blocks where critical clinical knowledge is presented but rarely revisited, risking poor long‑term retention and potential impacts on patient care. Busy schedules and brief rotations made it hard for faculty to reinforce and track what residents actually remembered and applied.

Using Qstream’s mobile microlearning platform, Dr. Ertug Kovanci pushed roughly 25 brief, scenario‑based challenges to residents every other day, delivering instant feedback and tracking performance. Learners found the format convenient and engaging, completed the course early and requested more content; faculty gained ongoing teaching reach and performance analytics, and plan to expand the program and compare future CREOG exam results to quantify its impact.
