Lumbar puncture simulation in pediatric residency training: improving procedural competence and decreasing anxiety

Abstract: BackgroundPediatric residents must become proficient with performing a lumbar puncture (LP) during training. Residents have traditionally acquired LP skills by observing the procedure performed by a more senior resident or staff physician and then attempting the procedure themselves. This process can result in variable procedural skill acquisition and trainee discomfort. This study assessed changes in resident procedural skill and self-reported anxiety when residents were provided with an opportunity to partic… Show more

“…AD research centers may seek to bolster LP participation rates with improved clinician training protocol to increase the rate of successful LP. While there is no standardized training procedure for clinicians per-forming research LPs, simulation-based learning has been effective for medical residents learning to perform LPs [24,25]. Training could focus on increasing clinician comfort with the procedure, since clinician stress has been associated with increased risk of post-procedure headache and is linked to patient's confidence [26].…”

“…There are few devices in use, and currently only fundoscopy training as well as lumbar puncture training has been used for simulation-based methods training in neurology residency-each using commercially available (Kyoto Kagaku America Inc) simulators. [6][7][8][9] In neurocritical care, however, few so-called scenarios (a written script superficially resembling a screenplay) have been systematically tested. We and others have developed scenarios for the determination of brain death, which includes a combination of pitfalls and confounders.…”

“…In contrast, evidence suggests that negative emotions, such as stress and anxiety, impair processing of information in a way that would hinder optimal performance. 32 Previous studies have identified that novices and even more experienced residents improve their performance and decrease their anxiety by simulation-based training. 25,28 However, the effects of simulation-based training on stress and performance in the clinical setting remain to be demonstrated for the LP procedure.…”
