RESUMO
Because of increases in the acuity in our patient population, increasing complexity of the care provided and the structure of our residency, we decided to systematically alter our participation in the hospital-wide cardiac arrest system. The need to provide optimum service in an increasingly complex clinical care system was the motivation for change. With substantive input from trainees and practitioners, we created a multi-tier-system of response along with predefined criteria for the anesthesiology response. We report the result of our practice based learning initiative.
RESUMO
The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education Outcome Project requires teaching and evaluation of 6 core competencies, one of which is professionalism. Because of this initiative, anesthesiology residency programs are obliged to teach and evaluate professionalism for anesthesiology residents. We decided to create a system that would allow the teaching and evaluation of professionalism in the specific context of anesthesiology.

To allow for growth in our anesthesiology residency, we assumed control of the clinical base year (postgraduate year 1[PGY-1]) and adjusted the curriculum to accommodate the expanded size. With this opportunity to change the curriculum, we created a clinical base year to prepare PGY-1 for clinical anesthesia training in PGY-2 to PGY-4 using, for this purpose, the best resources of our clinical site. We describe the process and preliminary results of the change.
