ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Recognizing a patient requiring urgent or emergent care and initiating evaluation and management must include elements that support teams working and thinking together. Although team communication strategies exist, a standardized approach for communicating about patients with urgent or emergent conditions is lacking. This simulation was designed to provide first-semester medical students with the opportunity to deliberately practice the foundational teamwork skills required to think as a team while caring for a patient with critical hypoglycemia.Methods:
Students were introduced to a team huddle that was structured using ISBARR (identify, situation, background, assessment, recommend, recap) to assist in synthesizing gathered information and arriving at a diagnosis and associated care plan. Students practiced in small groups with faculty coaches and then applied the skills learned to two cases of a patient with critical hypoglycemia followed by debriefing.Results:
Two hundred eight first-semester medical students participated in the simulation course across three campuses. We surveyed a single campus subset of 172 students. One hundred thirty-three students completed a postevent survey. The majority felt that the difficulty of the simulation was appropriate for their educational level (94%) and that the training would be applicable to real-life clinical events (76%) and would improve the quality and safety of care (100%). Survey comments highlighted teamwork and the use of the ISBARR huddle communication tool.Discussion:
The course provided first-semester medical students with standardized practice of a team-based approach using huddle communication to advance patient care.Palavras-chave
