Workshop, Assessment, and Validity Evidence for Tools Measuring Performance of Knee and Shoulder Arthrocentesis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Musculoskeletal concerns are common, yet residents at our institution lacked arthrocentesis training. We created a workshop to teach residents knee and shoulder arthrocentesis, developed simulated assessment scenarios (SASs) with tools to measure procedural proficiency, and collected validity evidence.

Methods

A multidisciplinary group conducted a modified Delphi to define content for the workshop, SASs, and assessment tools. We defined minimum thresholds for competence in knee and shoulder arthrocentesis using the modified borderline-group method. We implemented the workshop and SASs in 2020 and 2021 and analyzed assessment tool scoring for statistical reliability and validity. Our program evaluation included SAS performance, participants' survey responses, and
