Background: Perioperative management involving anesthesiologists plays an important role in prognosis of recipients after lung transplantation. Since the development of lung transplantation, the demand for specialized anesthesiologists continues to increase. As the largest lung transplant center in China, the Wuxi People's Hospital was tasked with trainee anesthesiologists throughout the country in lung transplantation anesthesia. This study aimed to evaluate the current status and training needs of anesthesiologists for the anesthetic management of lung transplantation in Wuxi People's Hospital between 2015 to 2020. Methods: Overall, 53 trainee anesthesiologists for lung transplantation from 35 hospitals were investigated anonymously in our survey. The questionnaire included the anesthesiologists' demographic information, level of satisfaction, training needs and current status in their hospitals. We divided the doctors into two groups depending on the trainee anesthesiologists’ seniority and professional title: intermediate and senior. Survey data were compared between the groups. Results: Significantly more doctors in senior-level positions had clinical research experience than did doctors in intermediate-level positions (P = 0.041). All doctors were highly or very highly satisfied with the training received. Doctors in intermediate-level positions preferred training periods of 4–6 months, while those in senior-level positions preferred 1–3 months of training (P = 0.044). Most doctors considered theoretical courses to be lacking (69.0%), followed by a lack of scenario simulation teaching (54.8%). The most desirable programs were transesophageal echocardiography (TEE, 71.4%) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO, 64.3%). ECMO technology was available in the hospitals of 95.2% of respondents; however, only 2.4% of doctors said the anesthesiology department took charge of perioperative ECMO. Significantly more senior-level doctors chose calibrated pulse contour analysis (P = 0.018) and significantly more intermediate-level ones chose TEE (P = 0.049). Disappointingly, 21.4% doctors reported a lack of certification evaluation for trainee anesthesiologists at their hospitals. Conclusions: Different training programs should be set up according to the trainee anesthesiologists’ level of seniority and training needs. Theoretical courses and scenario simulation training must be added to improve the training program. Moreover, the training of TEE and ECMO requires greater attention. Finally, a standardized completion assessment is required for trainee anesthesiologists. |
