Training Pulmonary Critical Care Medicine Fellows in Thoracentesis Using a Head-Mounted Video Camera

BACKGROUND: Determination of competence to perform procedures during pulmonary critical care medicine fellowship training has traditionally been based on subjective faculty opinion and numerical requirements. OBJECTIVE: To describe an objective means of assessing competence of fellows to perform tho...

description BACKGROUND: Determination of competence to perform procedures during pulmonary critical care medicine fellowship training has traditionally been based on subjective faculty opinion and numerical requirements. OBJECTIVE: To describe an objective means of assessing competence of fellows to perform thoracentesis using a head-mounted video camera with offline scoring of the thoracentesis performed on an actual patient. METHODS: To test competence in performance of thoracentesis after a multimodality training program, a total of eight first-year fellows performed a thoracentesis on an actual patient while recording the procedure with a lightweight head-mounted video camera in 2017 and 2018. The recordings were scored offline by two faculty members using a 30-point checklist. The percentage agreement between scorers was measured, as was the opinion of the fellows and the scorers on the testing process. If a fellow failed completion of all checklist items, they were provided with further training and retested to assure competence. As part of their training, fellows reviewed the video record of their procedures. RESULTS: Eight first-year fellows were tested, of whom seven successfully completed key checklist items as determined by the video scorers. One failing fellow passed after further training and testing. The percentage agreement between the scorers was high, and fellows indicated that the video device was useful for training. CONCLUSION: This study supports the use of video-based testing for assessment of competence and for training in performance of thoracentesis by fellows.
