Abstract
Objective

To analyse the impact of 10 years of blended echocardiography teaching.

Methods and results

A questionnaire was emailed to all medical doctors who graduated from the blended learning diploma in echocardiography developed by the University of Chile and taught by a team from Chile and Spain. One hundred and forty of the 210 students who graduated from the program between 2011 and 2020 completed the questionnaire: 53.57% were anaesthesiologists, and 26.42% were intensivists. More than 85% of respondents indicated that the online teaching met their expectations, and 70.2% indicated that the hands-on practice fulfilled the stated objectives. In a retrospective analysis using self-reported data, graduates reported that their use of transthoracic and transoesophageal echocardiography has increased from 24.29% to 40.71% and from 13.57% to 27.86%, repectively, after the programme compared to before the programme. They used echocardiography mainly in the perioperative period (56.7%) and during intensive care (32.3%), while only 11% of respondents used it in emergency care units. Nearly all (92.4%) respondents reported that the skills learned was very useful in their professional practice.

Conclusions

Ten years after its launch, the blended learning diploma in echocardiography was well rated by graduate specialists, and is associated with a significant increase in the use of echocardiography in the perioperative period and during intensive care. The main challenges are to establish a longer period of practice and achieve greater implantation in emergency medicine.

Resumen
Objetivo

Analizar el impacto durante 10 años de nuestro programa de enseñanza semipresencial en ecocardiografía.

Métodos y resultados

Se envió una encuesta retrospectiva a todos los médicos especialistas que se graduaron en el programa, desarrollado en la Universidad de Chile, con un equipo docente de Chile y España. Un total de 140 de entre 210 estudiantes, graduados en nuestro programa de 2011 a 2020, respondieron voluntariamente a la encuesta. Entre quienes respondieron, el 53,57% fueron anestesiólogos y el 26,42% intensivistas. Más del 85% de los respondedores indicó que el periodo de enseñanza online cumplió sus expectativas, y el 70,2% indicó que la experiencia práctica cumplió sus objetivos. En un análisis retrospectivo utilizando datos autorreportados, se observaron incrementos significativos en cuanto a frecuencia del uso de ecocardiografía transtorácica y transesofágica del 24,29% al 40,71% y del 13,57% al 27,86%, respectivamente, tras el programa, en comparación con el periodo anterior al mismo. Se usó la ecocardiografía principalmente en el periodo perioperatorio (56,7%) y en cuidados intensivos (32,3%), mientras que solo el 11% de los respondedores la utilizó en unidades de urgencia. Además, el 92,4% de los respondedores reveló que la información aprendida durante el programa había sido muy útil para su práctica posterior.

Conclusiones

A lo largo de una década de uso, el programa de aprendizaje semipresencial de ecocardiografía fue evaluado satisfactoriamente por los especialistas que se graduaron en el programa, siendo asociado a un incremento significativo del uso de ecocardiografía en el periodo perioperatorio y en cuidados intensivos. El principal desafío es establecer un periodo más prolongado de práctica, y lograr un mayor alcance en la medicina de urgencias.
