Training and Assessment in Pediatric Endoscopy
KEY POINTS
Given its unique nature, training in pediatric gastrointestinal endoscopy requires an approach that is tailored to pediatric practice to ensure delivery of high-quality endoscopic care in children.
There remains a need for a comprehensive pediatric-specific endoscopy curriculum that incorporates best evidence in procedural skills education and reflects the current competency-based model of training.
Current evidence supports the use of endoscopy simulation–based training for novice endoscopists to help speed up the early learning curve and reduce patient burden, although pediatric-specific data are limited.
Assessment is an essential component of pediatric endoscopy education that drives both teaching and learning.
Structured direct observational assessment tools, such as the GiECATKIDS, provide a framework for teaching, facilitate feedback provision, and can be used to generate aggregate assessment data across training programs to help gauge trainees’ progress toward specific competency-based milestones.
