A Novel Ambulatory Curriculum for Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship Training.

ABSTRACT: Background: Dedicated ambulatory training during pulmonary and critical care medicine (PCCM) fellowships is often limited. A novel 2-year longitudinal outpatient pulmonary fellowship curriculum was previously developed, piloted, and studied. The exportability and potential impact of this ambulatory curriculum on PCCM fellowship training nationally is not known. Objective: We aim to understand the current state of ambulatory training in PCCM fellowships and the impact of a standardized outpatient curriculum on fellows' ambulatory knowledge and competency. Methods: Nineteen programs participated in the study from 2017 to 2019. Six programs received the first year of content, seven programs received the entire 2-year curriculum, and seven programs served as a control. Fel
