BACKGROUND: In the United States, Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine (PCCM) fellowship training traditionally requires performing a minimum number of bronchoscopy and pleural procedures to be deemed competent. However, expert panel recommendations favor assessments based on skill and knowledge. PCCM trainees have a variable exposure to the advanced procedures in the presence of interventional pulmonary (IP) fellowships, so we surveyed the PCCM program directors (PD) across the United States to assess the procedural volume and competency of their fellows. METHODS: Survey invitations were emailed between April 2022 and May 2022, and responses were collected from PCCM fellowship programs. The PD assessed the competency and volume of procedures performed by PCCM fellows at the end of training. The primary objective was to determine the effect of IP fellowship or IP faculty on fellows' procedural competency. The secondary objective was to assess the same impact on procedural volume. RESULTS: The survey response rate was 41.9% (n=109/260) with an average of 4.23 fellows/program (95% CI: 3.9-4.6). 74.5% (73/98) programs reported having access to IP faculty, while 26.5% (26/98) had an AABIP-accredited IP fellowship. No significant difference was noted for procedural competency or volume in programs with or without an IP fellowship or IP faculty during training. Most programs reported that PCCM fellows do not perform advanced bronchoscopy procedures. CONCLUSION: An IP fellowship or IP faculty at a PCCM training institution did not appear to influence the PD-assessed volume or competency of common bronchoscopy and pleural procedures performed by fellows.
