Defining a competency map for a practical skill

In recent years there has been a move towards a competency‐based model for assessing the performance of practical procedures in clinical medicine rather than the traditional assumption that competency is achieved with increasing experience. For such an assessment to be valid, the necessary competencies comprising that skill must be identified. Our aim was to map the individual competencies necessary to perform a given procedural skill using spinal anaesthesia as the example, and to explore the relationship of individual competencies with each other.
