Abstract

Background: Chest tube thoracostomy is a common procedure that offers in patients with medical emergency conditions. Severe complications or even death can occur to the patients if medical doctors do not well perform and skillfully. This study aims to find medical doctors’ perception of the realistic features of the chest tube thoracostomy simulation model, which was developed by researchers. Methods: Fifteen Myanmar medical doctors were voluntarily to enroll in a half-day, chest tube thoracostomy workshop. Data of medical doctors’ perception was collected using a 5-points Likert’s scale self-evaluation survey form. In addition, the participants were asked to write their comments or suggestions for the realistic features of the chest tube thoracostomy simulation model. Results: Medical doctors’ perception on the realistic features of the chest tube thoracostomy simulation model was positive by responding as agree and strongly agree. All experts perceived as strongly agree in cost effectiveness of the model (100%) and using the model in the procedural training (100%). The postgraduate doctors responded to similar human sensations and complying procedural steps as agree (92.3%) in both statements. All experts rated to self-confidence (100%) as agree whereas the postgraduate doctors responded to it as agree (84.6%). Participants preferred the structures of the simulation model and its educational values for the chest tube thoracostomy procedural skills training. They suggested to use this simulation model for training medical students. Conclusion: The perception of the medical doctors on the realistic features of the chest tube thoracostomy simulation model showed that this simulation model could use as an effective educational tool in the procedural skills training.

Abstract

Background: Pericardiocentesis is regarded as a procedure that has the potential for saving lives. This procedure is indicated in patients with the diagnosis of cardiac tamponade and hemodynamic shock and should be done urgently to such cases. There would be severe complications if this procedure is not performed properly and skillfully. In this study, a newly developed ultrasound-guided pericardiocentesis model was used for training procedural skill with the aim to allow undergraduate medical students experience the procedure with the cheap and easily built model. Aims: The objectives of the study were to develop ultrasound-guided pericardiocentesis model, to determine its usefulness for training the procedural skill, and to evaluate the medical doctors’ attitude toward training with the model. Methods: This pilot study was conducted to try out the model with medical doctors. The practical workshop plan for the trying out the model was developed. Video recording during the procedure, the questionnaire, and the semi-structured interview were conducted after the participants performed the procedure to assess their perception regarding with the efficacy and usefulness of the model. Results: According to results, the participants could recognize the free fluid, pericardium, and heart of the model in ultrasound screen (4.2 ± 0.45, 4.6 ± 0.55, and 4.4 ± 0.55 respectively). The model was suitable for training ultrasound-guided pericardiocentesis (4.4 ± 0.55). The model was perceived to be good and useful for training ultrasound-guided pericardiocentesis. The participants also wanted to use the model for teaching the procedural skill to medical students before performing with the real patients. Conclusions: The model was considered to be useful and appropriate for training the procedural skill. Therefore, the model could be used as the effective training tool for training ultrasound-guided pericardiocentesis.Â
