dc.description.abstractDependable assessment tools are essential for Competency Based Medical Education (CBME).  Competence in central venous catheterization (CVC) is a key objective to be learned by trainees. Tools to assess technical competency include checklists, critical error tools, Objective Structured Assessment for Technical Skills (OSATS) tools and the Ottawa Surgical Competency Operating evaluation (O-SCORE) tool. This study examined the impact of a simulation-based educational intervention on resident knowledge and performance of CVC. It also compared the dependability of the scores derived from the four assessment tools.  Junior residents completing their first ICU rotation in Calgary participated in the study. The control group received didactic instruction. The intervention group received simulation-based teaching and an online multimedia educational module. No observed differences between groups were identified in any of the assessment measures. Global rating scales such as the OSATS or O-SCORE tools outperformed checklists or critical error tools when assessing competence for this procedure.en_US
