However, teaching this skill effectively presents challenges with current training methods. Simulation‐based medical education offers advantages over traditional methods. However, the use of instructional design features in ultrasound‐guided regional anaesthesia simulation training has not been defined. This systematic review aimed to identify and evaluate the prevalence of various instructional design features in ultrasound‐guided regional anaesthesia simulation training and their correlation with learning outcomes using a modified Kirkpatrick model.MethodsA comprehensive literature search was conducted including studies from inception to August 2024. Eligibility criteria included randomised controlled trials; controlled before‐and‐after studies; and other experimental designs focusing on ultrasound‐guided regional anaesthesia simulation training. Data extraction included study characteristics; simulation modalities; instructional design features; and outcomes.ResultsOf the 2023 articles identified, 62 met inclusion criteria. Common simulation modalities included live‐model scanning and gel phantom models. Instructional design features such as the presence of expert instructors, repetitive practice and multiple learning strategies were prevalent, showing significant improvements across multiple outcome levels. However, fewer studies assessed behaviour (Kirkpatrick level 3) and patient outcomes (Kirkpatrick level 4).DiscussionUltrasound‐guided regional anaesthesia simulation training incorporating specific instructional design features enhances educational outcome; this was particularly evident at lower Kirkpatrick levels. Optimal combinations of instructional design features for higher‐level outcomes (Kirkpatrick levels 3 and 4) remain unclear. Future research should standardise outcome measurements and isolate individual instructional design features to better understand their impact on clinical practice and patient safety.","PeriodicalId":7742,"journal":{"name":"Anaesthesia","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142935143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Accurate prediction of postoperative complications in older patients: a long way to go","authors":"Zhendong Ding, Qin Liao, Yongzhong Tang","doi":"10.1111/anae.16540","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/anae.16540","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;We read with interest the Science Letter by Dubowitz et al. [&lt;span&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;]. The application of biological instead of chronological age for the prediction of postoperative complications in patients is a promising advance, and we concur with the authors' perspective on the potential association between biological ageing and postoperative complications after cancer surgery. This study helps prompt surgeons and anaesthetists to reflect on their practice and identify high-risk patients, regardless of the method used.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000&lt;p&gt;However, in statistics, correlation is not a substitute for causal inference. Also, exclusive reliance on the PhenoAge model as a means of calculating biological age has considerable limitations. This model uses conventional clinical biomarkers (e.g. white blood cell count, blood glucose, lipids, creatinine, etc.) to calculate biological age [&lt;span&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;]. In our opinion, these markers reflect primarily the macroscopic health of the body, but do not fully capture the ageing process at the cellular or molecular level. They are also susceptible to external factors (e.g. diet, lifestyle, environmental pollution, etc.) and, thus, may not reflect an individual's biological ageing accurately. In addition, PhenoAge modelling is based on data from specific populations, usually in the USA. In other races and regions, the performance of this model may not be the same. Therefore, when the PhenoAge model is applied in different races or regions, it may need to be re-based on a large sample size of data for optimisation or training.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000&lt;p&gt;Most importantly, the PhenoAge model simplifies the ageing process, which is a multifactorial and complex process involving interactions at multiple levels, such as gene expression; telomere shortening; immune system decline; and epigenetic changes [&lt;span&gt;3, 4&lt;/span&gt;]. The model focuses mainly on a few clinical markers, but it fails to account for all the biological processes involved in the ageing process and, therefore, may overlook some subtle key roles of age-related molecular targets. Indeed, one of the primary challenges in predicting the incidence of postoperative complications in older patients accurately is the absence of dedicated peri-operative databases for this specific population. Such databases are essential for researchers to obtain sufficient, high-quality raw data.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000&lt;p&gt;In accordance with this objective, our research group is currently engaged in the establishment of the Perioperative Management and Outcome database, which is a large-scale, nationwide registry of older patients in China [&lt;span&gt;5&lt;/span&gt;]. The prospective registry is expected to provide a rich dataset that will facilitate the evaluation of the quality of peri-operative care and, in turn, improve clinical care for older patients. Nevertheless, it has proven challenging to construct a database that encompasses multiple countries or regions and is based on participants from a diverse range of populations.
