Feasibility of Network-Based, Online Endovascular Simulator Training in Real Time: Results from a Pilot Study. | LitMetric

Purpose: To test the feasibility of an online, simulator-based comprehensive interventional radiology (IR) training curriculum in times of COVID-19-induced travel restrictions.

Materials And Methods: A network of six VIST simulators (Mentice, Gothenburg, Sweden) was installed in six geographically different radiology departments. Two courses with six sessions each took place. 43 participants were recruited on a voluntary basis among local residents. The training sessions were conducted in real time with interconnected simulation devices and were led by experts in the field of IR on a rotational basis. The participants attitude toward various topics was quantified before and after training on a seven-point Likert scale (1 = "not at all", 7 = "to the highest degree"). In addition, post-course surveys were conducted.

Results: The courses led to an improvement for all items compared with baseline: interest in IR (pre: 5.5, post: 6.1), knowledge of endovascular procedures (pre: 4.1, post: 4.6), likelihood of choosing IR as a subspecialty (pre: 5.7, post: 5.9). Experience with endovascular procedures (pre: 3.7, post: 4.6) improved significantly (p = 0.016). In the post-course surveys high satisfaction rates with the pedagogical approach (mean 6), the teaching content (mean 6.4), and the duration and frequency of the course (mean 6.1) were observed.

Conclusion: The implementation of a simultaneous endovascular online training curriculum in different geographic locations is feasible. The curriculum has the potential to meet the demand for training in IR in times of COVID-19-associated travel restrictions and can complement future training in the context of radiologic congresses.

Key Points: · The implementation of a simultaneous endovascular online training curriculum in different geographic locations is feasible. For interested residents, the presented online curriculum can offer a low-threshold and comprehensive entry into the world of interventional radiology at the site of their training..
