A Simulation Program for Teaching Obstetrics and Gynecology Residents the Pediatric Gynecology Examination and Procedures
چکیده انگلیسی

Study ObjectiveTo assess the use of a pelvic simulation curriculum to teach obstetrics and gynecologic residents the pediatric gynecology examination and procedures.DesignResidents in obstetrics and gynecology participated in a simulation curriculum using a modified pelvic hemimodel to simulate a pediatric pelvis.Participants19 obstetrics and gynecology residents completed the study protocol.InterventionsDigitally recorded encounters with a standardized patient scenario using the simulator were utilized. After the initial encounter the trainees participated in a formal lecture and demonstration using the model. The trainees were then reassessed at least four weeks after the initial encounter; results were reviewed by a blinded evaluator. Scores were analyzed using the two-sided t-test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test.Main Outcome MeasuresScores from before to after the simulation training.ResultsA total of 19 residents completed the study protocol and demonstrated significant improvement in scores from before to after the simulation training. Scores improved from a pre-training mean of 6.1 to post-training mean of 16.7 (P = 0.0001). Improvement was seen at all levels of residency training. Specific skill sets included in the Council for Resident Education in Obstetrics and Gynecology (CREOG) Educational objectives (1) were improved including: pediatric gynecologic examination, collection of microbial cultures, vaginal lavage and vaginoscopy.ConclusionsThis teaching program using a simulation model was found to be an effective tool to improve resident knowledge and performance of the skills needed to accomplish the pediatric gynecology examination.
