简要总结
Intraoperative stress among the surgical team can be a threat to patient safety and good teamwork. During surgery, surgeons often work under stressful conditions. Reducing intraoperative stress for surgeons could benefit surgeons and subsequently patients. Based on the hypothesis that an intraoperative pause including a sugar-containing drink would decrease surgeon's stress levels, the aim of this study is to compare stress levels, in relation to intraoperative stress and how this is affected by a pause including a sugar-containing drink in simulated operations.
详细描述
A randomized controlled cross-over trial was conducted in a simulator environment. Primary endpoint was intra-individual change in salivary cortisol between simulations with or without a pause including a sugar containing drink. Secondary endpoints were change in heart rate, change in self-perceived stress measured by the State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and experience of the intraoperative pause.
