The Impact of Remote Training on Colonoscopy KPIs

Summary

Colonoscopy is a complex, highly operator dependent, practical skill. The consistent attainment of key performance indicators (KPIs) by endoscopists depends primarily upon training. Local factors can make training unstructured and contingent upon the observed practice of a small number of trainers. The investigators sought to demonstrate the feasibility and impact of a virtual-live one day colonoscopy-training course.

Training intervention

Trainees underwent a one-day training course (intervention) by consciously competent endoscopists who were physically remote consisting of interactive theoretical sessions and live sessions, where trainees performed colonoscopy in their local endoscopy unit receiving real-time instructions via a tele-conference monitor. Trainers and trainees not doing the colonoscopy, followed the procedure in real-time. KPIs were assessed on trainee-performed colonoscopies for 3 weeks prior and 4 weeks after the intervention.
