Abstrakt: Background: Modern management of cardiac arrhythmias often requires interventions in which young physicians must acquire a high level of expertise. However, concerns have been raised about the increase in side effects during procedures performed with resident involvement.
Aim: This study aims to identify the effects of resident training on cardiac electrophysiological procedures within a university centre.
Methods: In a single-centre study, cardiac arrhythmia procedures were reviewed retrospectively, and resident involvement was scrutinized. Univariate and multivariable models were built for the following outcomes: fluoroscopy time; operative time; length of hospitalization after procedure; and adverse events.
Results: We reviewed 991 procedures, 574 without and 417 with resident involvement (650 cardiac pacemakers or defibrillators, 120 generator replacements, 188 electrophysiological studies and 153 radiofrequency ablations). Resident involvement was associated with an increase in fluoroscopy time: +1.7±0.4minutes (P<0.01) for pacemaker implantation; and +2.5±0.9minutes (P=0.01) for electrophysiological studies. Operative time was longer for electrophysiological studies (+10.8±4.9minutes; P=0.03) and pacing implantation (+8.4±2.2minutes; P<0.01). There was no significant association between resident training and adverse events (7.67 vs. 9.83%; P=0.28).
Conclusions: Cardiac electrophysiological procedures performed with resident involvement have a good safety profile. However, resident training modestly, but significantly, prolongs fluoroscopy time and operative time.
