Questions reliability of this DOPS tool for ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia; leaves open development of assessments with higher inter-rater consistency.
Observational (n=30)
Effect estimate: ICC 0.25
The direct observation of procedural skills assessment tool for ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia demonstrated moderate internal consistency and construct validity, but poor inter-rater reliability.
Watson et al. (2014) conducted an observational in Ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia (n=30). Direct observation of procedural skills assessment tool was evaluated on Inter-rater reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient for total score) (ICC 0.25). A direct observation of procedural skills assessment tool for ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia demonstrated low inter-rater reliability (ICC 0.25 for total score) among six expert assessors.
