Area of Science:

  • Medical Simulation
  • Patient Safety
  • Clinical Procedures

Background:

  • Arterial cannulation is a common procedure in ICUs and ORs with a reported 1% complication rate.
  • Simulation is a valuable tool for assessing clinical skills and identifying performance variations.
  • Understanding these variations can help mitigate complications associated with arterial catheter insertion.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the technical performance of healthcare providers during simulated arterial catheter insertion.
  • To identify interdisciplinary and intradisciplinary variations in arterial catheter insertion techniques.
  • To explore factors contributing to potential complications in arterial cannulation.

Main Methods:

  • Providers from anesthesia, medical ICU, and surgical ICU participated in simulated arterial catheter insertions.
  • A Delphi-derived checklist was used to assess technical performance via offline video review.
  • Data were collected on procedural planning, equipment preparation, patient preparation, and sterile technique adherence.

Main Results:

  • Significant differences were observed in kit usage (ad hoc vs. commercial) and ultrasound guidance utilization (MICU only).
  • Anesthesia providers were less likely to don gowns, while MICU and SICU providers consistently sutured catheters.
  • Overall sterile technique observance was high (70%-100%), with no significant differences between groups.

Conclusions:

  • Simulated arterial catheter insertions highlight significant procedural performance variability.
  • Discipline-based practice parameters and setting-specific cultural factors contribute to performance differences.
  • Addressing these variations through simulation can enhance patient safety and reduce complications.
