Procedural Learning Perspectives of Pulmonary Fellows and Practitioners

Abstract

Pulmonary fellows and practitioners we surveyed preferred a traditional course structure with cadaver/animal models and high-fidelity simulation training as compared with a flipped classroom model and low-fidelity simulators, but whether this holds true for the wider population is unknown. Larger studies are needed to validate learning perception with outcomes.

Specimen acquisition training with a new biosimulator in endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration

“…A recent survey showed that fellows and practitioners preferred a traditional course structure with a high-fidelity training course to a flipped classroom model and low-fidelity simulators. [13] The 30-minute lecture followed by a hands-on session might contribute to a better understanding of the procedure. In the hands-on session with a biosimulator, subjects can review their skills immediately.…”
