Simulation-Based Medical Education Improves Procedural Confidence in Core Invasive Procedures for Military Internal Medicine Residents

Abstract: Internal medicine residents across all post-graduate year (PGY) levels at our institution lacked confidence to independently perform core internal medicine procedures. Utilizing simulation-based medical education as an adjunct to clinical training is well accepted by internal medicine trainees, and resulted in significantly improved procedural confidence. This intervention was well received by trainees and could feasibly be replicated at other active-duty military internal medicine residency programs to assist… Show more

“…The results from this study support the growing trend found in medical education literature indicating some modality of simulation is beneficial in the training of medical students and residentsespecially for those transitioning into real world clinical practice. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] This study focused on those about to enter an emergency medicine residency program, but there are several other documented studies where the use of simulation has positively impacted the confidence of a broader range of students. 3,4,[17][18][19][20] Simulation has been established as a successful, evidence-based tool in medical education for several decades.…”

“…25 Sattler et al (2020) found an increase in self-reported confidence in a population of internal medicine residents upon completion of a simulation course covering six invasive bedside procedures. 13 Several studies, including this one, have used mainly self-reported perceived changes in their studied outcomes. Therefore, the role of simulations as an objective improvement tool in medical education is still unclear.…”

“…Previous studies have highlighted the promise of VR video in medical education [ 14 , 17 , 24 , 25 ]. Interactive media and online materials provide engaging experience and can help in conceptualizing intricate 3D data (in surgery or anatomy) or integrating the sequences of technical medical procedures [ 12 , 13 , 20 ]. In a survey by Sultan et al, 93% of 169 undergraduate medical students were willing to engage in VR support for medical education [ 26 ].…”
