A novel simulator-based checklist for evaluating residents' competence in cerebral angiography in China

ABSTRACT:

Background

Nowadays, with the fast-increasing demand for neuro-endovascular therapy, surgeons in this field are in urgent need. Unfortunately, there is still no formal skill assessment in neuro-endovascular therapy in China.

Methods

We used a Delphi method to design a newly objective checklist for standards of cerebrovascular angiography in China and evaluated its validity and reliability. A total of 19 neuro-residents with no interventional experience and 19 neuro-endovascular surgeons from two centers (Guangzhou and Tianjin) were recruited; they were divided into two groups: residents and surgeons.
