Development and Videographic Evaluation of a Vascular Access Simulation-Based Curriculum for Surgical and Medical Trainees.

ABSTRACT:

Background

There is a paucity of data evaluating femoral arterial access training, despite significant morbidity/mortality associated with incorrect femoral arterial access. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a novel 2-component simulation-based curriculum to address a lack of standardized access training and identify the most frequent errors in access.

Methods

The femoral arterial access curriculum was developed through a multi-disciplinary collaboration and utilized in-person simulation sessions in conjunction with online and in-person didactic training. Access errors and curriculum efficacy were assessed using mixed-methodology evaluation of video recordings of trainee arterial access pre- and postcurriculum. All recordings were reviewed and scored by 2 bli
