Integrated Procedural Performance Instrument (IPPI)

Integrated Procedural Performance Instrument (IPPI)

IPPI is a patient-centred, learner-focused approach to assessing clinical procedures. Realistic scenarios combine Simulated Patients (trained actors) with medical models to place the patient’s experience at the centre of the process. IPPI presents a sequence of clinical procedure scenarios to build up a composite picture of technical skills, communication skills and professional behaviours across a range of challenging clinical situations. Scenarios are rated using the Imperial College Feedback and Assessment System (ICFAS), which uses web-based computer technology to record procedures and provide detailed, secure feedback.
