Summary:February 2019 We have read with great interest the article entitled: “Cognitive load theory as a framework for simulation-based, ultrasound-guided internal jugular catheterization training: Once is not enough, but we must measure it first,” by McGraw et al.1 The study reports the instructional design of simulation-based central venous access training, consisting of three sessions of progressive part practice. 3 The latter has abundant evidence of effectiveness as a learning strategy in improving performance.4,5 Unless any kind of method to quantify the cognitive load is used, there is no way to answer this question, based on the results of the present study.
