Summary
A consensus process established essential skills for assessing pediatric fellows in transport medical control (TMC). This work provides content validity for evaluating these crucial skills in pediatric subspecialty training.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Pediatric Critical Care
- Transport Medicine
Background:
- Pediatric interfacility transport teams improve access to specialized care.
- Physicians provide remote guidance through transport medical control (TMC).
- A lack of competency assessment tools for pediatric subspecialty fellows performing TMC duties exists.
Conclusions:
- Content validity was established for assessing pediatric subspecialty fellows' TMC skills.
- A consensus-based approach ensured the relevance and importance of the assessment items.
