RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Vaginal deliveries that result in perineal trauma involve significant morbidity to women. Multiple strategies have been identified to reduce the risk of severe perineal lacerations. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of an interprofessional simulation-based teams-training program aimed at reducing severe perineal lacerations during childbirth. METHODS: A quasi-experimental pre-post single-group design was used to examine the performance of labor and delivery personnel at a large multihospital system after participating in a mixed-modality simulation program for reducing perineal lacerations. Multiple educational strategies aimed at management of second stage of labor (including laboring down, warm compresses, coaching, positioning, perineal support, controlled delivery of fetal head, and mediolateral episiotomy techniques) were taught using patients, task trainers, and a standardized curriculum during interprofessional educational sessions. Primary study outcomes were as follows: (a) pre-post differences in knowledge; (b) pre-post differences in team performance assessments; and (c) pre-post differences in safety culture. Secondary outcomes were severe perineal laceration rates. RESULTS: During an 18-month period, 675 personnel in 4 hospitals participated in the program. Significant improvement was noted in pre-post scores of knowledge (59.86%, 93.87%, P < 0.0001), performance (36.54%, 93.45%, P < 0.0001), and safety culture (3.24, 1.45, 1 = high, 5 = low, P < 0.0001). Severe perineal laceration rates decreased by 33.38% since initiation. Rates fluctuated with the addition of new personnel and renewed educational programs. CONCLUSIONS: A multimodal interprofessional simulation program of strategies to prevent severe perineal lacerations significantly improved knowledge, skills, and attitudes in labor and delivery personnel within a healthcare system. Severe perineal laceration rates were reduced.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To estimate whether a novel structured curriculum could significantly improve medical student performance in early pregnancy loss counseling. BACKGROUND: Medical students receive limited exposure to early pregnancy loss counseling through real-life observation of this important skill. METHODS: A pre-post control group design was used to examine early pregnancy loss counseling performance among medical students from two medical schools doing their obstetrics and gynecology rotations at the same community hospital. The study outcomes were: (1) pre-post differences in Standardized Patient Objective Structured Clinical Examination scores; (2) pre-post differences in student confidence levels; and (3) postdifferences in standardized patient empathy ratings. Both groups had similar demographics, academic parameters, and longitudinal curricula. The study group (N=39) received a curriculum of demonstration and role-playing for delivering bad news and a shared decision-making model for early pregnancy loss management. The control group (N=38) received traditional instruction. RESULTS: Standardized Patient Objective Structured Clinical Examination posttest scores were significantly higher for the study group compared with the control group (94.2% compared with 69.7%, P<.001) after starting with similar pretest scores (64.0% compared with 61.6%, P=.53). Posttest confidence levels (1=high, 5=low) were significantly higher for the study compared with the control group (1.57 compared with 3.62, P<.001) after starting at similar levels (4.27 compared with 4.23, P=.79). Standardized patient empathy ratings (1=high, 5=low) were significantly higher for the study compared with the control group (1.84 compared with 2.62, P=.002). CONCLUSION: A structured curriculum for teaching early pregnancy loss counseling improved student performance on standardized Objective Structured Clinical Examinations compared with traditional instruction. Providing these counseling tools improved their confidence and empathy ratings in caring for patients with early pregnancy loss.
