From: Four different models for simulation-based training of bronchoscopic procedures
Task | Description | Observation | Outcome |
---|---|---|---|
1. Simulation of bronchoscopic airway inspection | Visualization of bronchial segments | How many segments were identified in the model? | Number of segments |
Was it possible to maneuver the bronchoscope into segment RB1 of the model without an endoscopic instrument in the working channel? | 0 = RB1 not visited 1 = RB1 visited | ||
Was it possible to maneuver the bronchoscope into segment RB6 of the model without an endoscopic instrument in the working channel? | 0 = RB6 not visited 1 = RB6 visited | ||
Maneuverability of bronchoscope with instruments | Was it possible to maneuver the bronchoscope into RB1 with an endoscopic instrument visible on the camera image? | 0 = RB1 not visited 1 = RB1 visited | |
Was it possible to maneuver the bronchoscope into RB6 with an endoscopic instrument visible on the camera image? | 0 = RB6 not visited 1 = RB6 visited | ||
Advancement of bronchoscope | How far could the bronchoscope be advanced into a segment of the right lower lobe of the model? | Advancement of scope in cm | |
How far could the bronchoscope be advanced into a segment of the left upper lobe of the model? | Advancement of scope in cm | ||
Secretions in the bronchial tree | How many times was it necessary to clean the lens inside the model? | Number of times | |
How many times was it necessary to remove the bronchoscope to clean the lens? | Number of times | ||
2. Simulation of BAL procedure | Installation of fluids | How much fluid was instilled in the model? | Volume in ml |
Was there any leakage of fluids from the model during the installation? | 0 = Leakage of fluid at any time 1 = No leakage of fluid | ||
Suctioning of fluids | How much fluid was retracted from the model during suctioning? | 0 = Less than 30% of instilled fluid retracted 1 = 30% or more of instilled fluid retracted | |
3. Simulation of tissue sampling | Sampling procedure | Was it possible to perform three sampling procedures in the model? | 0 = Not possible 1 = Sampling tissue was removed x 3 |
