Introduction

The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) requires emergency medicine (EM) residency training programs to monitor residents' progress using standardized milestones. The first assessment of PGY 1 resident milestones occurs midway through the first year and could miss initial deficiencies. Early assessment of PGY 1 EM resident milestones has potential to identify at-risk residents prior to standard midyear evaluations. We developed an orientation syllabus for PGY 1 residents followed by a milestone assessment. Assessment scores helped predict future milestone scores and American Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM) In-Training Examination (ITE) scores for PGY 1 residents.

Methods

From 2013 to 2020, we developed and implemented Milestone Evaluation Day (MED), a simulation-based day and written exam assessing PGY 1 EM residents during their first month on the 23 ACGME 1.0 milestones. MED stations included a history and physical with verbal presentation, patient simulation, vascular access, wound management, and airway management. MED, Clinical Competency Committee-generated (CCC-generated) milestone, and ABEM ITE scores were averaged and compared utilizing Pearson's correlation coefficient.

Results

Of 112 PGY 1 EM residents, 110 (98%) were analyzed over an 8-year period. We observed a moderate positive correlation of MED and CCC-generated milestone scores (r = .34, p < .001). There was a nonstatistically significant weak positive correlation of MED and ABEM ITE scores (r = .13, p = .17).

Discussion

An early assessment of EM milestones in the PGY 1 year can assist in the prediction of CCC-generated milestone scores for PGY 1 residents."],"journal":["MedEdPORTAL : the journal of teaching and learning resources"],"pagination":["11386"],"full_dataset_link":["https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC10928014"],"repository":["biostudies-literature"],"pubmed_title":["Early Emergency Medicine Milestone Assessment for Predicting First-Year Resident Performance."],"pmcid":["PMC10928014"],"pubmed_authors":["Versalle RL","Chen NW","Todd BR","Turner-Lawrence DE"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"Early Emergency Medicine Milestone Assessment for Predicting First-Year Resident Performance.","description":"
