Entwicklung eines Curriculums für ein Fellowship Kinderanästhesiologie in Deutschland
摘要
The anesthesiological care of children places particular demands on the knowledge and skills of the anesthetist providing care. There is currently no structured further training in this field in Germany.
MethodA curriculum for a fellowship program in pediatric anesthesiology was developed through a consensus procedure. Building on specialist anesthesiology training this program aims to impart specific knowledge and skills for the care of children.
ResultsThe defined final skills were divided into basic and advanced skills. Basic skills are taught at all fellowship sites, while the teaching of advanced skills depends on the structural requirements of the centers. In addition to the acquisition of clinical competencies, the fellowship comprises mandatory supplementary components, such as a quality improvement project, continuing professional development, certified pediatric emergency courses and webinars. The fellows’ progress in competencies is monitored through regular, standardized evaluation interviews and documented as part of a structured evaluation.
SummaryThe “Pediatric Anesthesiology Fellowship” is a competency-based, curriculum-structured training program. Building on specialist anesthesiology training it aims to contribute to the sustainable improvement of patient safety and the quality of care in pediatric anesthesiology.
