Anaesthesia in Europe (UK)
• How convince Anesthesiologists to go outside the O.R?
• Is it all economics?
• Challenges in training and future plans?
• Non-physician Anesthetists?
Marathon des Sables

•Thermal challenge
•Fluid loss
•Electrolyte imbalance
•Acute inflammatory response

Anaesthesia in Europe (UK)
• How convince Anesthesiologists to go outside the O.R?
• Is it all economics?
YES – BUT!
Anesthesia Outside the OR?
• Critical Care – 90% Anesthetists
• Pain – Acute and Chronic – 95% Anesthetists
• Pre-op evaluation
• Critical Care Outreach
• Management
Funding in UK?
• National Health Service– National Pay Scale– No Billing!– ALL Doctors paid
same– Term pension
• Private Practice– Inflated hourly
rates– Direct Patient
Billing– Symbiotic
relationship
Anesthesia Outside the OR?
• Critical Care* – 90% Anesthetists
• Pain – Acute and Chronic* – 95% Anesthetists
• Pre-op evaluation* (replacing cardiology) – “Fit for Surgery”
• Critical Care Outreach* (PACU + post-op care)
• Management*Doctors: Doctor
*Nurses: Nurse

Anaesthesia in Europe (UK)
• How convince Anesthesiologists to go outside the O.R?
• Is it all economics?
• Challenges in training and future plans?
• Non-physician Anesthetists?
Non-Physician Anaestheitists in UK
• Can only work under Physicians• Same as SHO (competent – not “post-
fellowship” – NOT “specialists”)• Training controlled by Royal College of
Anaesthetists (27 months)• NOT just Nurses• Can not practice independently• 1 Consultant : 2 Assistants. Max 2 rooms
(Private practice?)
Non-Physician vs Physician
• Pre-op evaluation– SHO, pre-fellowship SpR, NPA:
• PMH, drugs, allergies, airway etc.
– Post fellowship SpR, Consultant:• Is the patient fit for surgery?• MY CLINIC• Special investigations (CPX)• Risk evaluation• Per-op technique• Post –op care
Training?
• Whats new in Europe (UK)?
• DR Judith Hulf – Vice President R.C.A.
Post-Graduate Medical and Education Training Board
(PMETB)
• Single unifying framework for postgraduate medical education and training
• General and Special Medical Practice (Education and Qualifications) Order
• Approved by Parliament April 2003
PMETB
“The order places a duty on PMETB to establish, maintain, and develop
standards and requirements relating to postgraduate medical education and
training in the UK.”
PMETB
The Board:• NHS appointees• Chairman, CEO• 25 members – 9 lay / 16 medical members
6 Academy of Medical Royal College nominees4 observers, 1 from each Department of Health
STASTA PMETBPMETB
* Independent * Accountable Secretary of State
* Certification & regulation body * Wider remit
* Devolved activity to Medical * Will run own activity
Royal College
* Colleges ran own visiting * Will commission own visits programme. Reported to STA to include lay members
• Does competency based training still need to be time based?• European minimum recommended training time• Does all “training” need to be completed before the award of a Certificate Completion Training?
PMETB and Length of Training
PMETB and the CCT
• CCT=CCST• Level of assessed competence in one or more areas of training• What is the minimum training time for a CCT?
“The standard for the award of a CCT should be the same as that currently required for a CCST”
Foundation YearsFoundation Years
-2 year planned programme of general training
-Series of placements - number of specialties
- number of healthcare settings-Demonstration of competence against set standards-Started in August 2005
Foundation YearsFoundation Years
• F1 and F2 are generic training• F1 normally works on 3 x 4 month posts• F2, more variety, 3 x 4/12 or 4 x 3/12, but can be individually tailored• Feeds into “general” specialty training• Level of service commitment?• Some specialities have lost their Junior Residents!

Oct 2005
F2 assessments
Overall Pass or Fail – no grades
• Mini-Cex (clinical evaluation exercise – 6 observed encounters)• DOPS ( direct observed procedural skills)• Mini-PAT (peer assessment tool)• CbD (case-based discussion)
Expect to identify doctors in difficulty early
Specialist Training
• To be streamlined• Years following F1/2 are Specialist Training (ST) years 1,2 etc• Specialist training years to be “seamless”• ST1 starts in August 2007• Selection process for ST1 will start in December 2006
Specialist Training
• PMETB sets the standards• Apply direct from F2• Competency based curriculum• Defined levels of competence for service delivery• End point is a CCT “Accredited doctor”

Seamless training
• Choice of specialty needs to be correct for the trainee• Currently 50% drop-out from Anaesthesia at SHO• Choosing a doctor with correct attributes• Selection criteria as yet un-validated
Manpower planning
Managing competency-based training
Stopping continual change
Keys to Success
Article 14 and Equivalence
• Previously: judged equivalence under Article 9 of the ESMQO
• Under the new medical order and PMETB Article 14 takes over the comparison with CCT training
Oct 2005
Article 14
• Country of origin is immaterial• Considers training and experience from anywhere
–Ratio T:E is unclear
Equivalence
144: experience of the applicant measured against the CCST(CCT)
145: experience of the applicant measured against a non-UK specialty
This could equate to a “generic” consultant
or
A non-UK specialty e,g. a cardiac anaesthetist
145
Have to have done training abroad to fit into this category
( to stop UK trainees taking this route)
Nuffield Chair at Oxford University
“Any fool can give an Anaesthetic”
“Yes, that’s what worries me!”
Anaesthetic Grant Application
Dear Sirs:
Despite there never having been any meaningful investment in Anaesthetic research, Anaesthetics always work and are incredibly safe (mortality < 1:100,000). Therefore, please give us millions of Medical Research Council pounds so that we may indulge ourselves in intellectual frippery.
Yours etc.
p.s. if you ever need an operation you will be safe with us
Dear Sirs:
Despite having invested millions of Medical Research Council Pounds in Cardiology, heart disease remains the commonest killer in the UK. Little or no progress has been made despite having the most Professors and the biggest departments. However, I have just noticed that very few nematodes die from heart disease and we have just decoded the human genome. Therefore, please continue to give us millions of Medical Research Council pounds so that we may continue to indulge ourselves in intellectual frippery.
Yours etc.
p.s: you will probably die from heart disease
Cardiology Grant!
