ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The growing number of learners implies that all of them cannot play an active role during high-fidelity scenarios. Studies suggest a positive educational value when learners are observers only, but it remains uncertain whether learning outcomes might be improved by using an observer tool (OT).METHODS:
Eighty-nine anesthesia residents were randomized to use an OT (n = 44, OT+; based on a cognitive aid) or not (n = 45, OT-) when not role-playing. The main outcome parameter was the learning outcomes assessed by comparing the change (before-after) in the response score to a questionnaire dedicated to medical knowledge obtained in the OT+ and OT- groups. The impact of using the OT was also assessed by measuring the perceived stress level and the change of the Anesthetists' Non-Technical Skill items values.RESULTS:
At the end of the session, the mean medical knowledge score (mean ± SD) was higher in the OT+ group than in the OT- group (11.4 ± 2.7 vs. 9.6 ± 2.4, respectively, P = 0.0008). The mean Anesthetists' Non-Technical Skill score and level of stress perceived did not differ between groups. Trainees rated similarly the learning value and satisfaction related to the simulation course.CONCLUSIONS:
This study suggests that observing high-fidelity simulation scenarios using an OT based on a cognitive aid increases the medical knowledge gain when compared with that seen in passive observers. This study suggests that the use of an OT improves the educational value of simulation.
