Learning curve in ponseti method - evolution in 5 year-intervals / Curva de aprendizado no método ponseti - evolução em intervalos de 5 anos

ABSTRACT Objective: Evaluate whether the experience of the surgeon could reduce Ponseti treatment time, and a number of cast changes, and the evolution of the Pirani Score. Methods: 2 reference centers were evaluated. At Institution 1, 254 patients with idiopathic clubfoot (403 feet) were included, and at Institution 2, 32 patients (51 feet). At institution 1 (mentor), 3 intervals of 5 years each were analyzed. At the Institution 2 (trainee), 1 interval of 5 years was analyzed. Results: Patients treated by the mentor had fewer casts compared with the trainee (p < 0.001). At Institution 1, the three mentor intervals showed differences in the number of casts (p < 0.05). A statistically significant difference was observed only in the first mentor interval (2000 to 2005, average of 3.47 casts) compared with the 2 other intervals (2005 to 2010; average of 2.6 casts and 2011 to 2015; average of 2.79 casts; p < 0.0001). Pirani score decreases the most until the third clinic visit. Conclusion: The mentor's greater expertise was associated with fewer casts and shorter time to obtain correction in isolated clubfoot, especially right after the first 5 years of practice. Progression of the Pirani score in both institutions occurs between the first and the third casts. Level of Evidence III; Therapeutic Study, Retrospective Comparative Study.

RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar se a experiência no Método Ponseti pode reduzir o tempo de tratamento e o número de gessos. Métodos: Na instituição 1 foram incluídos 254 pacientes com pé torto idiopático (403 pés) e na instituição 2, 32 pacientes (51 pés). Na instituição 1 (mentora) foram analisados 3 intervalos de 5 anos. Na instituição 2 (estagiária), foi analisado 1 intervalo de 5 anos. Resultados: Os pacientes tratados pelo mentor tiveram menos gessos em comparação aos tratados pelo estagiário (p < 0,001). Na Instituição 1, os três intervalos de mentores apresentaram diferenças no número de gessos até a correção dos pés (p < 0,05). Diferença estatisticamente significativa foi observada no primeiro intervalo do mentor (2000 a 2005, média 3,47 gessos) em comparação com os outros 2 intervalos (2005 a 2010; média 2,6 gessos e 2011 a 2015; média 2,79 gessos; p < 0,0001). O escore de Pirani diminui mais até a terceira consulta clínica. Conclusão: A maior expertise do mentor no Método Ponseti esteve associada ao menor número de gessos e ao menor tempo para correção do pé torto, principalmente logo após os primeiros 5 anos. A maior progressão do score de Pirani ocorre entre o primeiro e o terceiro gesso. Nível de Evidência III; Estudo Terapêutico, Estudo Comparativo Retrospectivo.

All participants were from the county medical community units. The survey showed that 91.8% (45/49) of respondents were willing to develop special interests and 79.6% (39/45) chose one subject, and the top three subjects were endocrinology, gastroenterology and cardiology. The structured interviews demonstrated that most participants did not understand meaning of general practitioners with special interests (GPwSIs) clearly and were unable to distinguish GPwSIs from specialists; they were confused about the status, training mode, and assessment standards of GPwSIs. The interviews also showed that the demand for developing special interests for them was derived from the needs of patients for diagnosis and treatment, the target population of health care services, peer advice and personal interests.Conclusions:Most general practice residents are willing to develop special interests, and internal medicine is the first choice; however, their understanding of the GPwSIs is insufficient. The survey suggests that the position, training model, assessment and certification of GPwSI need to be further clarified.
