Development of a Rigorously Designed Procedural Checklist for Assessment of Emergency Medicine Resident Performance of Temporary Transvenous Cardiac Pacing.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Temporary transvenous cardiac pacing (TVP) is a potentially lifesaving intervention included in the list of essential core procedures for emergency medicine (EM) training; however, opportunities to perform TVP during residency cannot be guaranteed. EM graduates report feeling subjectively underprepared for this procedure, but objective performance data are lacking. Checklist-based simulated assessment is an increasing focus of competency-based medical education, particularly for invasive procedures like TVP. The objectives of this paper were as follows: first, to enlist a multidisciplinary team of experts to create an assessment tool for TVP using best practices in checklist development; second, to determine the reliability of checklist scoring; and third, to assess EM r
