    The American College of Physicians offers guidelines for evaluating physician performance in fiber-optic bronchoscopy. This resource aids hospital committees in upholding practice standards for this medical procedure.

    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology
    • Medical Education

    Background:

    • Hospital committees require standardized methods to assess physician competency.
    • Evaluating procedural skills is crucial for patient safety and quality of care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To provide guidelines for assessing physician performance in fiber-optic bronchoscopy.
    • To establish cognitive and procedural objectives for bronchoscopy evaluation.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a comprehensive list of cognitive and procedural objectives.
    • Inclusion of indications, contraindications, and high-risk situations for the procedure.

    Main Results:

    • A structured set of objectives for evaluating fiber-optic bronchoscopy performance.
    • Clear delineation of when the procedure is indicated, contraindicated, or high-risk.
