| Popis: | OBJECTIVES The aims of the study were to assess the feasibility of using low-cost models to train first-year pediatric residents and to examine whether residents who receive such training will be as competent as their experienced colleagues in performing 4 American College of Graduate Education-required procedures, including suturing, splinting, lumbar puncture, and venipuncture. METHODS We performed a pilot study with postgraduate year (PGY) 1 to 3 residents. Postgraduate year 1 residents completed a self-assessment questionnaire before the onset of training. A lecture was given to all PGY levels residents about procedural techniques. The PGY-1 residents practiced these techniques on low-fidelity models immediately after the lecture. One and 9 months after the initial lecture, all residents were assessed on these models using a 10-point checklist for each skill. RESULTS Thirteen PGY-1 residents, 10 PGY-2 residents, and 10 PGY-3 residents completed the study. There was no statistically significant difference in performance of PGY-1 residents when compared with PGY-2 and PGY-3 residents in performing lumbar puncture, venipuncture, and suturing on models in the initial assessment that was performed 1 month after the lecture. Postgraduate year 1 residents performed equally well to PGY-3 residents and significantly (P < 0.05) better than PGY-2 residents, in splinting.There was no statistically significant difference between groups at final follow-up, supporting that training on models could help enhance proficiency among residents. CONCLUSIONS This pilot study supports the feasibility of using low-cost models to train residents on invasive and painful procedures. Furthermore, residents trained on models showed maintenance of skills for a 9-month period. |
