Article Synopsis
- Endotracheal intubations in intensive care units are critical but high-risk procedures, and PCCM fellows' training experiences vary; a new curriculum was developed to enhance their EI skills.
- The curriculum involved didactic lectures and simulation-based education, with knowledge and practical skills assessed through surveys and exams before, after, and one year post-participation.
- Results showed that most graduating fellows lacked confidence in their EI skills before the curriculum, but after participation, there was a significant increase in knowledge retention at one year, indicating the curriculum's effectiveness.
