The state of point-of-care ultrasound training in pediatric anesthesia fellowship programs in the United States: A survey assessment.
Background: Point-of-care ultrasound is an invaluable bedside tool for anesthesiologists and has been integrated into anesthesiology residency training and board certification in the United States. Little is known about point-of-care ultrasound training practices in pediatric anesthesia fellowship programs.
Aims: To describe the current state of point-of-care ultrasound education in pediatric anesthesia fellowship programs in the United States.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey study distributed to 60 American Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education-accredited pediatric anesthesia fellowship programs. Two programs were in their initial accreditation period and were excluded due to lack of historical data. Program directors or associate program directors were invited to complete this 23-item survey.
Results: Thirty-three of fifty-eight programs (57%) completed the survey. Of those, 15 programs (45%) reported having a point-of-care ultrasound curriculum. Programs with ≤3 fellows per year were less likely to have an ultrasound curriculum compared to programs with ≥4 fellows per year (30% programs 0-3 fellows/year vs. 69% programs ≥4 fellows/year, odds ratio 0.19 [95% confidence intervals 0.04-0.87]; p = .03). Program directors and associate program directors rated point-of-care ultrasound training as highly valuable to fellows' education. Barriers to use most commonly included lack of experience (64%), lack of oversight/interpretive guidance (58%), and lack of time (45%). Programs without point-of-care ultrasound training had significantly higher odds of listing lack of ultrasound access as a primary barrier (50% programs without vs. 13% programs with, odds ratio 6.5, [95% confidence intervals 1.3-50]; p = .04).
Conclusions: This observational survey-based study suggests that fewer than half of pediatric anesthesia training programs in the United States offer point-of-care ultrasound education. Additional research is needed to optimize this education and training in pediatric anesthesia fellowship programs.
