Assessing Neurosurgery Training: Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education Case Minimums Versus Surgical Autonomy.
Background and objectives: The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) requires neurosurgery residents to reach a set number of cases in specified procedure types (case minimums) before graduation and mandates completion of Milestones. We used the Surgical Autonomy Program, a validated method of autonomy-based resident evaluation, to determine the number of cases it took for residents to become competent and compared these with the ACGME case minimums.
Methods: We collected data from neurosurgery residents at Duke University on 7 procedures (tumor craniotomy, trauma craniotomy, ventriculoperitoneal shunt, anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), posterior cervical fusion (PCF), discectomy/laminectomy, and posterior thoracolumbar spinal fusion [PSF]). We defined competency as being graded at the highest autonomy level in the Surgical Autonomy Program by attending neurosurgeons for the first and second time and determined the case volume on the ACGME case log when these were achieved. These results were analyzed with summary statistics.
Results: The median case volume among residents (N = 4-8) for the first and second competency rating (and ACGME minimum) for each procedure type was found to be: tumor: 44.5 and 64.5 (min. 60), trauma: 21 and 30 (min. 60), ventriculoperitoneal shunt: 11.3 and 13 (min. 20), ACDF: 30 and 32.5 (min. 20), PCF: 24 and 40 (min. 30), discectomy/laminectomy: 28 and 36 (min. 30), and PSF: 51 and 54 (min. 30).
Conclusion: We found variation in the case numbers to reach competency and that for some procedures (tumor, ACDF, PCF, discectomy/laminectomy, and PSF), most residents required more cases than the ACGME case minimums to achieve competency. The ACGME case minimums may not accurately reflect the number of cases required for neurosurgical residents to reach competency. To promote trainee-centered education, individualized, competency-based evaluation systems may be better determining readiness for graduation, including a system that builds off the established ACGME Milestones.
