Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to assess the current state of musculoskeletal point-of-care ultrasonography training among the rheumatology postgraduate programs in Canada and explored the interest in developing a national curriculum.

Method: A Canadian survey was developed by academic rheumatologists including point-of-care ultrasonography experts and point-of-care ultrasonography non-users. Across Canada, all 15 adult and 3 pediatric rheumatology English and French postgraduate programs were surveyed via Survey Monkey with a standardized questionnaire.

Results: The completed response rates were 27% (24/89) for postgraduate year-4 and -5 rheumatology trainees and 61% (11/18) for program directors. Forty-two percent (10/24) of trainees had access to formal point-of-care ultrasonography training, and 67% (16/24) had some form of informal nonstructured exposure. Of all respondents, 87.5% (21/24) trainees and 82% (9/11) program directors agreed or strongly agreed that point-of-care ultrasonography is an important clinical tool in rheumatology. Eighty-nine percent (8/9) of program directors felt that point-of-care ultrasonography should be a formal part of rheumatology training.

Conclusion: This national survey demonstrates that while musculoskeletal point-of-care ultrasonography is considered an important component of clinical practice, significant training barriers exist. The majority of both trainees and program directors felt that point-of-care ultrasonography should be a formal part of training and would be interested in a national standardized point-of-care ultrasonography curriculum in Canada.

加拿大风湿病学研究生项目中的肌肉骨骼护理点超声检查培训。
目的:本研究旨在评估加拿大风湿病研究生课程中肌肉骨骼护理点超声训练的现状,并探讨开发国家课程的兴趣。方法:一项加拿大调查是由学术风湿病学家开发,包括点护理超声专家和点护理超声非用户。通过Survey Monkey对加拿大所有15名成人和3名儿童风湿病学英语和法语研究生课程进行了标准化问卷调查。结果:四年级和五年级风湿病学研究生的完成缓解率为27%(24/89),项目主任的完成缓解率为61%(11/18)。42%(10/24)的受训者接受了正式的现场超声检查培训,67%(16/24)的受训者接受了某种形式的非正式非结构化暴露。在所有受访者中,87.5%(21/24)的受训者和82%(9/11)的项目主任同意或强烈同意,即现场超声检查是风湿病学的重要临床工具。89%(8/9)的项目主管认为现场超声检查应该成为风湿病学培训的正式组成部分。结论:这项全国调查表明,虽然肌肉骨骼点超声检查被认为是临床实践的重要组成部分,但存在显著的培训障碍。大多数受训者和项目主管都认为,现场超声检查应该是培训的正式组成部分,并对加拿大国家标准化的现场超声检查课程感兴趣。
