| Popis: | Introduction: Otolaryngology and anesthesiology residents may be the first responders to airway emergencies, even in the first weeks of training. These residents may be unfamiliar with the armamentarium of airway maneuvers, the most basic of which may be lifesaving. Boot camp education has been demonstrated to be effective in multiple disciplines. In this study, we examine whether an immersive, multidisciplinary boot camp style simulation course leads to an improvement in novice airway provider confidence. Methods: Novice otolaryngology and anesthesiology residents participated in an annual (2013-2018) multidisciplinary boot camp simulation course. Residents completed an anonymous pre- and post-test self-assessment tool reporting their confidence for airway skills and concepts from the curriculum. Responses were on a Likert scale from 1 to 5 (1=no familiarity, 5=extremely comfortable). We analyzed pre- and post-course participant self-reported comfort level with the airway management skills and concepts addressed in the course. Frequencies and percentages were reported. Fisher’s exact test was used to assess statistical significance at level 0.05. Results: A total of 62 residents, including 50 anesthesiology residents and 12 otolaryngology residents, completed a post-test self-assessment tool. For all topics covered in the course, there was a statistically significant change in the percentage of residents who reported familiarity with the topic (p |
