Validation of a Detailed Scoring Checklist for Use During Advanced Cardiac Life Support Certification

Abstract: Introduction Defining valid, reliable, defensible, and generalizable standards for the evaluation of learner performance is a key issue in assessing both baseline competence and mastery in medical education. However, prior to setting these standards of performance, the reliability of the scores yielding from a grading tool must be assessed. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to assess the reliability of scores generated from a set of grading checklists used by non-expert raters during simulations of Am… Show more

“…We based the methods for developing the assessment checklists on the methodology of similar studies and summarize our methods here. 4,9,10 We established the content of the checklists through a detailed review of relevant literature to identify evidence-based practices and further refined them through a modified Delphi process. 2,914 We used the checklists to score several pilot scenarios (described below) and made iterative changes based on observations from these pilot simulations.…”

“…They received training in the manner previously described. 9 We used scores from the training videos to gauge the effectiveness of the rater training. The raters spent approximately 4 hours in a training period in which they viewed and scored 4 training videos and resolved all discrepancies between raters.…”

“…21,22 Also, reliable scores can be obtained through the use of an ACLS checklist during a high stakes performance assessment, called a Megacode, used during ACLS certification. 23 To this end, the need for valid, reliable assessment tools to evaluate skills-based performance of student pharmacists during simulation cannot be overstated, particularly as pharmacy education programs are called to provide evidence of competency/mastery of pre-APPE domains. Future studies based on these results are needed to target the best approach for using evaluation tools to set standards of proficiency in pharmacy practice.…”
