Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Conventional training group   Conventional training group will undergo mastery learning atleast 4 weeks before their first procedural skill assessment. Mastery learning is a form of competency based education in which learners acquire essential skills and knowledge measured rigorously in relation to high and fixed achievement standards without restricting learning time to a uniform interval to reach the outcome. In mastery learning education, results are uniform, with little or no variation, whereas education time to achieve mastery may vary among trainees. The residents in this group will be made to undergo a structured Central venous catheter insertion training program which will involve video instructions and hands on practice time with an ultrasound guided CVC insertion manikin. This training will be supervised by trainers adept in simulation based mastery learning techniques. An expert rated checklist will be used to assess the performance of the resident during training. A checklist score of more than 50 out of 54 will be the minimum passing standard. The simulation based mastery learning methodology entails proficiency at a procedure without regard to the time involved in attaining it. Training will continue till the resident is able to achieve the minimum passing standard during three consecutive simulated ultrasound guided central venous catheter insertions. This will be followed by a debriefing session which will include a review of the checklist. Duration 45 minutes 
Intervention  Just in time training group  Residents in the intervention group will undergo Just-In-Time training (JiT) for ultrasound guided central venous line insertion. The JiT session will be carried out immediately before the procedural skill assessment. The JiT session will be facilitated by a faculty member experienced in simulation teaching and will involve review of the essential steps of the procedure and the checklist. Duration 45 minutes

Brief Summary  

To assess difference in checklist scores between the conventional training group and the Just in time training group in CVC placement. 

A procedural assessment for all residents will be carried out. The assessment will be carried by an independent rater blinded to the type of simulation training received by the resident using the expert rated checklist. The residents will also be assessed on the number of procedural errors they commit during the procedure using a Procedural errors checklist. Procedure related data which will include no. of attempts for venous puncture, total time (from placing of USG probe on skin to flushing of last CVC port) and patient related data will be collected. Data will also be collected on self-reported resident confidence and competence on a Likert scale.

This assessment will be done a total of three times for each resident. Second and third assessments will be done at least 4 weeks after the baseline and the second assessment, respectively. 

Demographic data will be represented using descriptive statistics. Shapiro-Wilk test will be used for checking normality. Groups will be compared using independent samples t-test. Other tests as appropriate will be applied.
