RESUMEN

PURPOSE: Simulation-based training has the potential to improve team-based care. We hypothesized that implementation of an in situ multidisciplinary simulation-based training program would improve provider confidence in team-based management of severely injured pediatric trauma patients. METHODS: An in situ multidisciplinary pediatric trauma simulation-based training program with structured debriefing was implemented at a free-standing children's hospital. Trauma providers were anonymously surveyed 1 month before (pre-), 1 month after (post-), and 2 years after implementation. RESULTS: Survey response rate was 49% (n = 93/190) pre-simulation, 22% (n = 42/190) post-simulation, and 79% (n = 150/190) at 2-year follow-up. These providers reported more anxiety (p = 0.01) and less confidence (p = 0.02) 1-month post-simulation. At 2-year follow-up, trained providers reported less anxiety (p = 0.02) and greater confidence (p = 0.01), compared to untrained providers. CONCLUSIONS: Implementation of an in situ multidisciplinary pediatric trauma simulation-based training program may initially lead to increased anxiety, but long-term exposure may lead to greater confidence. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: II, Prospective cohort.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Patient barriers to protect health care workers from COVID-19 exposure have been studied for airway management. Few are tested for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). We sought to determine whether a plastic drape barrier affects resuscitation performance and contamination risks for a simulated cardiopulmonary arrest scenario. METHODS: This pilot trial randomized in-hospital resuscitation teams of 4 to 6 participants to a plastic drape or without a drape in an in situ cardiopulmonary arrest simulation. The mannequin's airway emanated simulated virus particles (GloGerm, Moab, UT), detectable through UV light. Primary outcomes included airway management and CPR quality measures. Secondary outcomes included visible contamination on personal protective equipment (PPE). We used the Non-Technical Skills (NO-TECHS) instrument to measure perceived team performance and the NASA Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) to measure individual workload. Outcome variables were analyzed using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with participant number as a covariate. RESULTS: Seven teams were allocated to the intervention (plastic drape) group and 7 to the control. Intubation and ventilation performance (η 2 = 0.09, P > 0.3) and chest compression quality (η 2 = 0.03-0.19, P > 0.14) were not affected by the plastic drape. However, mean contaminated PPE per person decreased with the drape (2.8 ± 0.3 vs. 3.7 ± 0.3, partial η 2 = 0.29, P = 0.05). No differences in perceived workload nor team performance were noted ( P > 0.09). CONCLUSIONS: In this pilot study, the use of a plastic drape barrier seems not to affect resuscitation performance on simulated cardiopulmonary arrest but decreases health care worker contamination risk. Further implementation trials could characterize the true risk reduction and any effect on resuscitation outcomes.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Best practices for benchmarking the efficacy of simulation-based training programs are not well defined. This study sought to assess feasibility of standardized data collection with multicenter implementation of simulation-based training, and to characterize variability in pediatric trauma resuscitation task completion associated with program characteristics. METHODS: A prospective multicenter observational cohort of resuscitation teams (N = 30) was used to measure task completion and teamwork during simulated resuscitation of a child with traumatic brain injury. A survey was used to measure center-specific trauma volume and simulation-based training program characteristics among participating centers. RESULTS: No task was consistently performed across all centers. Teamwork skills were associated with faster time to computed tomography notification (r = -0.51, p < 0.01). Notification of the operating room by the resuscitation team occurred more frequently in in situ simulation than in laboratory-based simulation (13/22 versus 0/8, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Multicenter implementation of a standardized pediatric trauma resuscitation simulation scenario is feasible. Standardized data collection showed wide variability in simulated resuscitation task completion.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The Trauma NOn-TECHnical Skills (T-NOTECHS) tool has been used to assess teamwork in trauma resuscitation, but its reliability and validity for self-assessment is unknown. Our purpose was to determine the reliability and validity of self-administered T-NOTECHS in pediatric trauma resuscitation. METHODS: Simulated in situ resuscitations were evaluated using T-NOTECHS in real time by experts and immediately afterwards by team members. Reliability was analyzed with linear-weighted kappa and intra-class correlation. T-NOTECHS scores were compared between expert (gold-standard) and self-assessment. RESULTS: Fifteen simulations were examined. T-NOTECHS scores were similar between self- and expert assessment for leadership. Self-assessment scores were higher than expert for the other domains and total composite score. Inter-rater reliability for total score was similar between the two groups, but differences were observed in the domains. CONCLUSIONS: Self-assessment is not interchangeable with expert rating when using T-NOTECHS. Future studies need to determine how self-assessment can be best utilized. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Studies of diagnostic accuracy - Level 2.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Effective teamwork is critical in the trauma bay, although there is a lack of consensus related to optimal training for these skills. We implemented in situ trauma simulations with debriefing as a possible training methodology to improve team-oriented skills. METHODS: Focus groups were conducted with multidisciplinary clinicians who respond to trauma activations. The focus group questions were intended to elicit discussion on the clinicians' experiences during trauma activations and simulations with an emphasis on confidence, leadership, cooperation, communication, and opportunities for improvement. Thematic content analysis was conducted using Atlas.ti analytical software. RESULTS: Ten focus groups were held with a total of 55 clinicians. Qualitative analysis of focus group feedback revealed the following selected themes: characteristics of a strong leader during a trauma, factors impacting trauma team members' confidence, and effective communication as a key component during trauma response. Participants recommended continued simulations to enhance trauma team trust and efficiency. CONCLUSION: Clinicians responding to pediatric trauma resuscitations valued the practice they received during trauma simulations and supported the continuation of the simulations to improve trauma activation teamwork and communication. Findings will inform the development of future simulation-based training programs to improve teamwork, confidence, and communication between trauma team members.
