Key result
An international Delphi study reached strong consensus on 8 core peripheral and neuraxial blocks and 17 learning objectives for a non-fellowship regional anesthesia curriculum.
Why the study?
A core regional anesthesia curriculum for non-fellowship trainees is less well defined than guidelines for subspecialty fellowship trainees.
Population
469 current and immediate past directors of regional anesthesia training worldwide from 66 countries
Design
Two-round anonymous electronic Delphi study

May guide non-fellowship curriculum development; leaves open validation against clinical competency and outcomes.
This international Delphi study establishes a consensus-based core regional anesthesia curriculum for non-fellowship trainees, standardizing training requirements globally.
Chuan et al. (2021) studied Regional anesthesia training (n=469). Consensus curriculum for non-fellowship regional anesthesia training was evaluated on Strong consensus (score ≥8 by ≥70% of participants) on core peripheral and neuraxial blocks, learning objectives, and skills assessment. An international Delphi study reached strong consensus on 8 core peripheral and neuraxial blocks and 17 learning objectives for a non-fellowship regional anesthesia curriculum.
