Surgical skills study

• 3 instruments• 1635 assessments• 437 cases• 15 index procedures• 5 specialities• 85 surgical trainees• 155 judges

Modelled reliability with

3 cases & 2 observers

• PBA, G=0.81

• NOTTS, G=0.59

• OSATS, G=0.65

PBA response scale• Level 1 Unable to perform the

procedure, or part observed, under supervision

• Level 2 Able to perform the procedure, or part observed, under supervision

• Level 3 Able to perform the procedure with minimum supervision (needed occasional help)

• Level 4 Competent to perform the procedure unsupervised (could deal with complications that arose)

• Very Poor
