ABSTRACT
Although evidence supports diverse assessment strategies, including patient/caregiver involvement in Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME), few residency programs formally include patients/caregivers in assessment. We aimed to determine the milestones for which patient/caregiver inclusion would be valuable in the Canadian Pediatric Competence By Design (CBD) curriculum.Program directors from 17 Canadian pediatric residency programs were invited to participate in a Delphi study. This Delphi included 209 milestones selected by the study team from the 320 milestones of the draft pediatric CBD curriculum available at the time of the study. In round 1, 16 participants representing 13 institutions rated the value of including patients/caregivers in the assessment of each milestone using a 4-point scale. We obtained consensus for 150 milestones, leaving 59 for re-exposure. In round 2, 14/16 participants rated remaining items without consensus. Overall, 67 milestones met consensus for 'valuable,' of which 11 met consensus for 'extremely valuable.' The majority of these milestones related to communication skills.Patient/caregiver assessment is valuable for 21% of milestones in the draft pediatric CBD curriculum, predominantly those relating to communication skills. This confirms the perceived importance of patient/caregiver assessment of trainees in CBME curricula; formal inclusion may be considered. Future directions could include exploring patients/caregivers' perspectives of their roles in assessment in CBD.
