Comparison of self versus expert-assisted feedback for cricothyroidotomy training: a randomized trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The self-video feedback method may have the potential to provide a low-cost alternative to physician-driven simulation-based training. This study aimed to assess the utility of two video feedback methods by comparing the improvement in performing cricothyroidotomy procedure following self video feedback (trainees review their performance by themselves) and expert-assisted video feedback (trainees review their performance while an emergency physician provides additional feedback).

Methods

This study was pretest-posttest and two-group designed research performed at a university simulation center with 89 final-year medical students and used a cricothyroidotomy simulation model. After seeing an educational presentation and a best practice video, trainees were randomized into two groups; self video feedback group (SVFG) and expert-assisted video feedback group (EVFG). They performed the cricothyroidotomy before and after the feedback. The procedures were also recorded and scored by two emergency physicians.

Results

There was a statistically significant improvement between pre-feedback and post-feedback assessments in terms of scores received and time needed for the procedures in both SVFG and EVFG groups (p < 0.05). Additionally, the post-feedback assessment scores were higher and time needed for the procedure was lower in the EVFG when compared with SVFG (p < 0.05 for both).

Conclusions

Results demonstrated significant improvement in cricothyroidotomy performance with both types of video feedback method. Even though the improvement was better in the EVFG compared to the SVFG, the self video feedback may have value especially in situations where expert-assisted feedback is not possible.

Project description:BackgroundSurgery for oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma involves dissecting lymph nodes along the recurrent laryngeal nerve. This is technically challenging and injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve may lead to vocal cord palsy, which increases the risk of pulmonary complications. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted oesophagectomy (RAO) versus video-assisted thoracoscopic oesophagectomy (VAO) for dissection of lymph nodes along the left RLN.MethodsPatients with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma who were scheduled for minimally invasive McKeown oesophagectomy were allocated randomly to RAO or VAO, stratified by centre. The primary endpoint was the success rate of left recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph node dissection. Success was defined as the removal of at least one lymph node without causing nerve damage lasting longer than 6 months. Secondary endpoints were perioperative and oncological outcomes.ResultsFrom June 2018 to March 2022, 212 patients from 3 centres in Asia were randomized, and 203 were included in the analysis (RAO group 103; VAO group 100). Successful left recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph node dissection was achieved in 88.3% of the RAO group and 69% of the VAO group (P < 0.001). The rate of removal of at least one lymph node according to pathology was 94.2% for the RAO and 86% for the VAO group (P = 0.051). At 1 week after surgery, the RAO group had a lower incidence of left recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy than the VAO group (20.4 versus 34%; P = 0.029); permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy rates at 6 months were 5.8 and 20% respectively (P = 0.003). More mediastinal lymph nodes were dissected in the RAO group (median 16 (i.q.r. 12-22) versus 14 (10-20); P = 0.035). Postoperative complication rates were comparable between the two groups and there were no in-hospital deaths.ConclusionIn patients with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma, RAO leads to more successful left recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph node dissection than VAO, including a lower rate of short- and long-term recurrent laryngeal nerve injury.

Project description:Purpose: Robot-assisted training has been widely used in neurorehabilitation, but its effect on facilitating recovery after stroke remains controversial. One possible reason might be lacking consideration of the role of embodiment in robotic systems. Mirror visual feedback is an ideal method to approach embodiment. Thus, we hypothesized that mirror visual feedback priming with subsequent robot-assisted training might provide additional treatment benefits in rehabilitation. Method: This is a prospective, assessor-blinded, randomized, controlled study. Forty subacute stroke patients were randomly assigned into an experimental group (N = 20) or a control group (N = 20). They received either mirror visual feedback or sham-mirror visual feedback prior to robot-assisted training for 1.5 h/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks. Before and after intervention, the Fugl-Meyer Assessment Upper Limb subscale, the Functional Independence Measure, the modified Barthel Index, and grip strength were measured. Scores of four specified games were recorded pre and post one-time mirror visual feedback priming before intervention in the experimental group. Results: All measurements improved significantly in both groups following interventions. Moreover, the Fugl-Meyer Assessment Upper Limb subscale, self-care subscale of the Functional Independence Measure, and the grip strength were improved significantly in the experimental group after a 4-week intervention, compared with the control group. Significantly higher scores of two games were revealed after one-time priming. Conclusions: Mirror visual feedback prior to robot-assisted training could prompt motor recovery, increase ability of self-care, and potentially enhance grip strength in stroke patients, compared to control treatment. Moreover, mirror visual feedback priming might have the capability to improve the patient's performance and engagement during robot-assisted training, which could prompt the design and development of robotic systems.

Project description:AimThis study aimed to demonstrate that using a self-regulated learning (SRL) approach can improve colonoscopy performance skills.BackgroundColonoscopy is the gold standard for detecting colorectal cancer and removing its precursors: polyps. Acquiring proficiency in colonoscopy is challenging, requiring completion of several hundred procedures. SRL seems to be beneficial to help trainees acquire competencies in regulating their future learning processes and enhance the outcomes of current learning situations. SRL is a learner-centred approach that refers to a trainee's ability to understand and control their learning environment, including cognitions, motivations and emotions. The key abilities include self- and situational awareness, task analysis, and strategic planning. This study is the first to use an SRL approach for workplace-based colonoscopy training.MethodsIn this comparison cohort trial, participants used two SRL supports: a self-review of videotaped performance, and an online learning platform with procedural and conceptual knowledge about colonoscopy. In the control cohort, participants performed patient-based colonoscopy as usual in their departments. Improvement was monitored via three video-based ratings (study start, end of the study period, and follow-up) using the Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Competency Assessment Tool (GiECAT). Outcomes were analysed using two-way analysis of variance with repeated measurements.ResultsThis study recruited 21 participants (12, intervention cohort; nine, control cohort); 58 videos were recorded. The intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.88 (95% CI 0.61-0.98; p < 0.001). The global rating scale (GRS) and checklist (CL) in GiECAT were analysed separately. No statistically significant main effects of cohort (GRS: F(1,16) = 2.84, p = 0.11; CL: F(1,16) = 1.06, p = 0.32), test (GRS: F(2,32) = 2.56, p = 0.09; CL: F(2,32) = 0.76, p = 0.48), or interactions between cohort and test were observed (GRS: F(2,32) = 1.16, p = 0.33; CL: F(2,32) = 1.01, p = 0.37).ConclusionsSRL in patient-based colonoscopy is feasible; however, no clear effect on performance scores was observed.
