Abstract

Surveys of pulmonology fellows and attending doctors, however, show a notable difference in bronchoscopy experience both during training and later in practise. There is a greater need to provide better methods to teach bronchoscopy and measure bronchoscopy expertise due to the declining number of bronchoscopies conducted and the continual development of new technology and procedures. The transfer of skills from the real world to the simulation must first be successful. If simulators are to be used to assess trainees' bronchoscopy skill, it is critical to consider how successfully abilities learned through actual bronchoscopy transfer to the simulation.

Keywords

Bronchoscopy, Pulmonology.

Introduction

Each participant completed two simulated instances while the simulator recorded their performance. After that, the learning curve for brand-new fellows training on the simulator was assessed using performance measures that differentiated between groups. The performance of newly trained pulmonary fellows who were trained using either conventional methods or the simulator was then compared in a randomized-controlled trial. In terms of procedure duration, percentage of segments viewable, time in red-out, and wall collisions, expert bronchoscopists outperformed intermediates on the simulator, who outperformed beginners. Because they are crucial to patient care and because stricter criteria are being proposed for the awarding of credentials, procedural skills are garnering more attention. It stands to reason that experienced bronchoscopists would fare better on the simulator. Furthermore, skill transfer from real-world to virtual environments is a reliable indicator of how closely a simulation resembles the real-world activity [1].

Judgment trial surveillance

On the basis of numerous measures of bronchoscopy performance as determined by the simulation programme, an observational study was conducted to see if a bronchoscopy simulator would be able to distinguish between beginners and experts. This part of the trial was carried out in three university-affiliated hospitals with individual pulmonary fellowship programs [2]. The coordinator instructed the study participant using a defined protocol regarding the objectives of the bronchoscopic examination and how to operate the simulator. The duration of the entire operation, the proportion of bronchial segments entered, the number of collisions, the time spent in red-out, suctioning, and the amount of lidocaine used would all be recorded, it was explained to the participants. A diagram of the tracheobronchial tree was provided to the participant so they may review the segmental anatomy. To guarantee that pulmonologists and non-pulmonary doctors had more comparable knowledge, the participant was given up to five minutes to review the anatomy and was free to use a diagram of the tracheobronchial tree throughout the protocol [3].

Statistical information recorded

Demographic information was gathered on subject, age, sex, and medical specialisation, level of computer and video game experience, and prior experience performing or viewing flexible bronchoscopy [4]. Self-reported computer experience ranged from never using a computer to extremely experienced, to somewhat experienced, to inexperienced. Study populations and sample size Enrollment in our randomized-controlled study was constrained by the difficulties of recruiting fellows on an annual basis. This reduced the size of our sample and, as a result, the statistical power of the analysis. Six first-year pulmonary fellows were randomly assigned to one arm that used a simulator and the other that received standard training [5].

Conclusion

These findings need to be viewed in the larger context of bronchoscopy training. There is not a lot of information available on the best bronchoscopy training. Our present approach to teaching bronchoscopy has been a replication of the surgical model of instruction, progressing from cognitive components of bronchoscopy to time-limited supervised procedures in low-risk patients to more sophisticated procedures in higherrisk patients. The bronchoscopy simulator was unfamiliar to all of the pulmonary fellows. First-year pulmonary fellows had not previously performed any bronchoscopies. A common curriculum for bronchoscopy training was completed by both groups. After that, the SIM group received more training on the bronchoscopy simulator, whereas the control group received more traditional instruction.
