Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography01:20

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography

397
Introduction:
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...

Ultrasonography

6.4K
Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
During an ultrasonography procedure, a handheld device called...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Simulation
  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Maternal-Fetal Medicine

Background:

  • Clinical ultrasound procedures have decreased due to advances in cell-free DNA genetic testing.
  • Reduced real-life procedures pose challenges for OB/GYN and maternal-fetal medicine (MFM) trainee competency.
  • Simulation offers a viable solution to supplement hands-on training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a simulation workshop for obstetric ultrasound-guided invasive procedures.
  • To assess the effectiveness of simulation training in improving procedural skills for trainees.

Main Methods:

  • A simulation workshop was created using ultrasound guidance task trainers and simulators for amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling.
  • The workshop included needle guidance basics, targeting tasks, and procedure-specific simulation.
  • Participant feedback was collected via Likert-scale surveys during 2019-2020 courses.

Main Results:

  • Approximately 300 individuals have participated in the workshops since 2015.
  • In 2019-2020, 180 participants (41 MFM attending physicians, 136 MFM fellows, 3 OB/GYN residents) completed the post-course survey.
  • Participants rated the simulation workshop highly, deeming it very effective for their training.

Conclusions:

  • An introductory simulation workshop for obstetric ultrasound-guided procedures is highly rated by participants.
  • Further objective assessment is needed to confirm skill improvement.
  • Sustained high procedural skill may require repeated simulation exposure and advanced workshops.
