Abstract
OBJECTIVES
1. To determine the satisfaction of tutors and residents with a specific methodology used to implement CoBaTrICE. 2. To determine the reliability and validity of the global rating scales designed ad hoc to assess the performance of the residents for training purposes.
DESIGN
Prospective cohort study.
PARTICIPANTS
All the residents and tutors of the ICU Department of the Hospital Universitario y Politécnico la Fe de Valencia.
INTERVENTION
CoBaTrICE implementation started in March 2016, it was based on: (1) Training the tutors in feedback techniques; (2) Performing multiple objective and structured work based assessments to achieve the competences of the program; and (3) The use of an electronic portfolio to promote learning reflection and to collect the evidence that learning was taking place.
METHODS
The acceptance of CoBaTrICE was explored through a satisfaction survey conducted after 9 months of implementation of the training program. The 15 residents and 5 tutors of the ICU Department were asked about the methodology of the formative assessments, the quality of the feedback, self-learning regulation and the electronic portfolio usefulness. The validity of the global rating scales was assessed through the tests alfa de Cronbach, reliability and generalizability indexes, and intraclass correlation coefficient.
RESULTS
The implementation of CoBaTrICE was satisfactory in all the dimensions studied. The global rating scales used for formative purposes showed reliability and validity.
CONCLUSIONS
The methodology used to implement CoBaTrICE was highly valued by tutors and residents. The global rating scales used for formative purposes showed reliability and validity.
