ABSTRACT: Background
The objective of this study was to validate the transfer of ultrasound-guided Internal Jugular Central Venous Catheterization (US-IJCVC) placement skills from training on a Dynamic Haptic Robotic Trainer (DHRT), to placing US-IJCVCs in clinical environments. DHRT training greatly reduces preceptor time by providing automated feedback, standardizes learning experiences, and quantifies skill improvements.Methods
Expert observers evaluated DHRT-trained (N?=?21) and manikin-trained (N?=?36) surgical residents on US-IJCVC placement in the operating suite using a US-IJCVC evaluation form. Performance and errors by DHRT-trained residents were compared to traditional manikin-trained residents.Results
There were no significant training group differences between unsuccessful insertions (p?=?0.404), assistance on procedure (p?=?0.102), arterial puncture (p?=?0.998), and average number of insertion attempts (p?=?0.878). Regardless of training group, previous central line experience significantly predicted whether residents needed assistance on the procedure (p?=?0.033).Conclusion
The results failed to show a statistical difference between DHRT- and manikin-trained residents. This study validates the transfer of skills from training on the DHRT system to performing US-IJCVC in clinical environments.
