“…A total of 60 international ultrasound experts from different medical specialties (radiology, emergency medicine, obstetrics, surgery, urology, rheumatology and gastroenterology) were invited to participate in three Delphi rounds [17]. Since then, several authors have used this tool to train and assess proficiency for clinical ultrasound in a variety of fields, namely obstetric and gynecology [18][19][20][21], abdominal trauma (eFAST) [22,23], lung [24], head and neck [25] ultrasound.…”

Background Ultrasound assessment of the airway recently integrates the point-of-care approach to patient evaluation since ultrasound measurements can predict a difficult laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation. Because ultrasonography is performer-dependent, a proper training and assessment tool is needed to increase diagnostic accuracy. An objective, structured assessment ultrasound skill (OSAUS) scale was recently developed to guide training and assess competence. This work aims to study the psychometric properties of OSAUS Scale when used to evaluate competence in ultrasound hyomental distance (HMD) measurement. Methods: Prospective and experimental study. Volunteers were recruited and enrolled in groups with different expertise. Each participant performed three ultrasonographic HMD evaluation. The performance was videorecorded and anonymized. Five assessors blindly rated participants’ performance using OSAUS scale and a Global Rating Scale (GRS). A psychometric study of OSAUS scale as assessment tool for ultrasound HMD competence was done. Results: Fifteen voluntaries participated on the study. Psychometric analysis of OSAUS showed strong internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha 0.916) and inter-rater reliability (ICC 0.720; p < 0.001). The novice group scored 15.4±0.18 (mean±SD), the intermediate 14.3±0.75 and expert 13.6±0.1.25, with a significant difference between novice and expert groups (p = 0.036). The time in seconds to complete the task was evaluated: novice (90±34) (mean±SD), intermediate (84±23) and experts (83±15), with no significant differences between groups. A strong correlation was observed between OSAUS and global rating scale (r = 0.970, p < 0.001). Conclusion The study demonstrated evidence of validity and reliability. Further studies are needed to implement OSAUS scale in the clinical setting for training and assessment of airway ultrasound competence.

“…This strategy including systematic quality control in assessing EFW might complementarily provide an additional response to the issue of performance assessment in sonographic education. 32 Indeed, although theoretical knowledge and retention in ultrasound education are relatively easy to assess, "practical competency" assessment, credentialing, and self-assessment/feedback remain an ongoing challenge. Implementing additional studies assessing the input of systematic scoring to control the learning curve and competency retention for antenatal ultrasound operators may offer new perspectives in medical education.…”

Estimated fetal weight (EFW) assessed by ultrasound is a key element on which obstetrical teams rely to identify situations at risk of maternal-fetal morbidity and mortality, including fetal growth restriction and macrosomia. [1][2][3][4] A diagnosis of abnormal growth can lead to the decision to perform interventions such as cesarean deliveries, inductions of labor, or in utero transfers to a facility with expertise in more complex births; these actions can prevent unfavorable outcomes. 3,5,6 The accuracy and reliability of EFW therefore

“…Anfänglich bereitet gerade die Orientierung im Schnittbild, die Erzeugung der Ultraschallbilder im freien Raum mit Zuordnung zu anatomischen Strukturen die größten Schwierigkeiten und kann individualisiert mittels Simulationsmodulen trainiert werden [42,86]. Mit dem auf diese Weise erworbenen Eingangswissen lässt sich die Lernphase in der realen Welt verkürzen und die anfangs unvermeidlichen, für den Lernfortschritt aber essentiellen Fehler im direkten Patientenkontakt verringern [49,61,87,88]. Simulationsbasiertes Training kann sich an erworbenen Kompetenzen orientieren und damit dem bisher unverändert weit verbreiteten Ausbildungskonzept aus vorgegebener Hospitationszeit und Anzahl von Untersuchungen die dringend erforderliche, praktikable didaktische Alternative bieten.…”

ZusammenfassungDie Simulation diagnostischer und therapeutischer Prozeduren nimmt in der medizinischen Aus- und Weiterbildung einen wachsenden Stellenwert ein und ist auch für das Erlernen von Ultraschallverfahren zunehmend relevant. In der vorliegenden Übersichtsarbeit werden die verschiedenen Simulationsstufen der Ultraschallmethodik und deren technische Grundlagen beschrieben. Zudem erfolgt eine kritische Literaturanalyse mit daraus abgeleiteten Empfehlungen zur Implementierung von Simulationstechniken in die ärztliche Aus- und Weiterbildung im Bereich der Ultraschalldiagnostik. Eine Gegenüberstellung von Vor- und Nachteilen der praktischen Anwendung belegt den Nutzen von Simulationen in Ausbildungssituationen, insbesondere im Kontext individueller Lernumgebungen und pandemiebedingter Kontaktbeschränkungen. Jedoch können die Komplexität der klinischen Untersuchungssituation und die Interaktion mit realen Patienten nur unvollkommen simuliert werden. Zukünftige Anwendungen sollten daher insbesondere für das Wiederholen und Prüfen bereits erlernter Kompetenzen unter Verwendung standardisierter Feedbackmechanismen eingesetzt werden, um begrenzte Weiterbildungsressourcen effektiver zu nutzen.
