OBJECTIVE: Online medical education resources are becoming an increasingly used modality and many studies have demonstrated their efficacy in procedural instruction. This study sought to determine whether a standardized online procedural video is as effective as a standard recorded didactic teaching session for chest tube insertion.
DESIGN: A randomized control trial was conducted. Participants were taught how to insert a chest tube with either a recorded didactic teaching session, or a New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) video. Participants filled out a questionnaire before and after performing the procedure on a cadaver, which was filmed and assessed by 2 blinded evaluators using a standardized tool.
SETTING: Western University, London, Ontario. Level of clinical care: institutional.
PARTICIPANTS: A total of 30 fourth-year medical students from 2 graduating classes at the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry were screened for eligibility. Two students did not complete the study and were excluded. There were 13 students in the NEJM group, and 15 students in the didactic group.
RESULTS: The NEJM group's average score was 45.2% (+/-9.56) on the prequestionnaire, 67.7% (+/-12.9) for the procedure, and 60.1% (+/-7.65) on the postquestionnaire. The didactic group's average score was 42.8% (+/-10.9) on the prequestionnaire, 73.7% (+/-9.90) for the procedure, and 46.5% (+/-7.46) on the postquestionnaire. There was no difference between the groups on the prequestionnaire (Delta + 2.4%; 95% CI: -5.16 to 9.99), or the procedure (Delta -6.0%; 95% CI: -14.6 to 2.65). The NEJM group had better scores on the postquestionnaire (Delta + 11.15%; 95% CI: 3.74-18.6).
CONCLUSIONS: The NEJM video was as effective as video-recorded didactic training for teaching the knowledge and technical skills essential for chest tube insertion. Participants expressed high satisfaction with this modality. It may prove to be a helpful adjunct to standard instruction on the topic. ( 2017 Association of Program Directors in Surgery.
