Anesthesiology residents can be safely and effectively trained in regional ocular anesthesia. A collaborative teaching program showed no significant difference in outcomes between ophthalmology and anesthesiology residents performing ocular blocks.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Anesthesiology
  • Medical Education

Background:

  • Regional ocular anesthesia is a critical skill for ophthalmic surgery.
  • Effective training programs are essential for resident competency.
  • Collaborative efforts between departments can enhance specialized training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail a joint ophthalmology and anesthesiology teaching initiative for regional ocular anesthesia.
  • To compare outcomes of ocular blocks performed by anesthesiology residents versus ophthalmology residents.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective descriptive study conducted in an outpatient setting.
  • 614 patients undergoing elective ocular surgery were included.
  • Outcomes of regional anesthesia administered by ophthalmology and anesthesiology residents were compared.

Related Experiment Videos

Main Results:

  • Ophthalmology residents performed the majority of regional ocular blocks (87%).
  • No statistically significant difference in negative outcomes (e.g., retrobulbar hemorrhage) between resident groups.
  • Similar success rates for blocks performed by both ophthalmology (90%) and anesthesiology (88%) residents.

Conclusions:

  • Regional ocular anesthetic techniques can be safely and successfully taught to anesthesiology residents.
  • Collaborative training programs are effective in achieving competency in ocular anesthesia.
