Case number proficiency guidelines?

Hi all,

Do any of the relevant pain societies publish guidelines on cases/year to retain proficiency?

An example might be 200 TFESI/year, or something along those lines. I know other specialty societies have guidelines like these.

I don't recall seeing anything like this before. I was curious so I took a look at my case logs from fellowship a couple of years ago. It has minimums on there which I think are ACGME-mandated but not certain. TFESI is listed at 5 and ILESI at 15.

I figured that might be the case -- thanks!

Definitely doesn't exist. And if it did, I'm sure it would be wildly inadequate (like the ACGME fellow requirements).
