“…Triggered assessment may be more acceptable to clinical supervisors and trainees, as it involves less time and work. A recent study suggested that clinical supervisors can feasibly complete a PBA in the time available between operations on a theatre list, with median PBA completion and feedback times of 6-15 min 23 . The present results add support to the practical implementation of PBA in the operating theatre, with the mean time for PBA completion and feedback lasting 4·9 min.…”

“…26 However, a study published in 2009 on the feasibility of PBAs demonstrated that they are feasible in clinical practice when there is adequate planning and commitment from trainers and trainees. 7 This study looked at the time taken to complete PBA forms in the commonly performed colorectal procedures. The results were encouraging and most of the interviewees also felt that these assessments need adequate planning, enthusiasm and commitment.…”

“…4 At present, there are limited data on DOPS and PBA available in literature. [5][6][7] This is probably due to the fact that most of the assessment and direct observations are carried out informally. Several studies on workplace-based assessment have commenced since the introduction of the foundation programme and ISCP in the UK and therefore evidence regarding validity, reliability, feasibility and assessment quality should start to emerge soon.…”

In medical education, the increasing interest in direct performance assessment has encouraged the development of a wide range of reliable and reproducible assessment methods. The assessment of surgical competency in the light of reduced training time is becoming even more important. It therefore needs to be a professional priority as well as being based on patient safety and political necessities. A shift in assessment culture has emphasised the importance of formative and summative assessments and assessment should consequently play a central role in learning in all contexts. A valid, sensitive and reliable system is essential to measure surgical skills. This could be introduced easily and could evaluate the trainee throughout his or her training period.

“…A study in Bath suggested that weekly PBA is feasible and acceptable. 131 Although triggered assessments may be more acceptable to trainees and assessors as they involve less time and work, the philosophy of assessment for learning should be 'the more the better' because of the constructive feedback provided. Furthermore, early and frequent assessment must be encouraged in order to demonstrate a progression in surgical skills that should precede achievement of competence.…”

HTAAssessing the surgical skills of trainees in the operating theatre: a prospective observational study of the methodology NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeThe Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' . The HTA program...

Undertaking Procedure-Based Assessment is Feasible in Clinical Practice

Abstract: PBAs are feasible in clinical practice and are valued by trainees as a means of enabling focused feedback and targeted training. Commitment from trainers and trainees will be required but, with adequate planning, the assessment tool is effective with minimal impact on clinical practice.
