Abstract

Objective

To develop Part II of the National Consensus Catalogue of essential psychomotor competencies and establish the minimum expected competence levels for graduating medical students across 11 clinical and diagnostic support specialties in Brazil using a modified Delphi process.Methods

This national consensus-development study used a two-phase, two-round modified Delphi process coordinated by the Brazilian Medical Association. Preliminary specialty-specific catalogues were developed between February and June 2025 by Scientific Committees from 11 specialty societies, which also proposed the minimum expected competence level for each psychomotor competency statement. Round 1 of the modified Delphi process was conducted from August to December 2025, and Round 2 was conducted from February to June 2026. Board-certified physicians evaluated each competency-competence level combination using a five-point Likert scale. Consensus was predefined as ≥75% agreement. Statements achieving <60% agreement were excluded after Round 1, whereas those achieving 60.0-74.9% agreement were revised and reassessed in Round 2. Additional competency statements proposed during Round 1 were evaluated in Round 2.Results

A total of 667 physicians participated in Round 1, and 499 completed Round 2. The preliminary catalogues comprised 346 psychomotor competency statements; 240 (69.4%) achieved consensus and 106 (30.6%) were excluded. Participants proposed 38 additional statements, of which 36 (94.7%) achieved consensus in Round 2. The Part II catalogue comprised 276 specialty-specific psychomotor competency statements, corresponding to 229 unique psychomotor competencies after harmonization. Most competency statements were classified as perform independently (n=195), followed by perform under supervision (n=62) and master the technique (n=19).Conclusion

This modified Delphi study established Part II of the National Consensus Catalogue of essential psychomotor competencies and minimum expected competence levels for graduating medical students, encompassing 11 clinical and diagnostic support specialties in Brazil.
