Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To implement a surgeon led initiative for tracheostomy education for non-surgical pediatric first responders in the hospital setting and to assess its efficacy. METHODS:A prospective, observational study conducted from September 2018 to March 2019. All pediatric residents at a tertiary care children's hospital were invited to participate. An objective knowledge test and self-assessment comfort questionnaire was completed before and after the intervention and at 6-month follow up. Educational sessions involved a targeted, interactive program with a didactic presentation and case-based simulation. RESULTS:Forty-four pediatric residents participated. Residents had limited experience with tracheostomy intervention with only one reporting personally resolving a tracheostomy issue. However, tracheostomy complications were relatively common with 43% reporting having watched another specialty intervene on a tracheostomy issue during an airway related emergency. The objective knowledge test results significantly increased; from pre-knowledge test percent mean of 61.25 (SD = 13.52) to post-knowledge test percent mean of 81.25 (SD = 10.57) [t(39) = -8.144, p < 0.001]. Comfort levels questionnaire median (IQR) results were also significantly higher than pre-intervention [3.70 (3.20-3.88) vs. 2.65 (2.13-3.00), Z = 780, p < .001]. CONCLUSION:We demonstrated improved knowledge among pediatric residents after a surgeon-led module for tracheostomy care and emergency management. A targeted tracheostomy education program may fill a gap in pediatric resident emergency resuscitation education.
