Simulation Training and Teamwork Concerning Intubation on the Icu

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Airway Management

• Registration Number: NCT04564105
• Lead Sponsor: Joint Authority for Päijät-Häme Social and Health Care

Brief Summary

To assess effects of the simulation education on the group intubating patients in the iCU, in this prospective study investigators will video-record real-life intubations and simulations. From videos will be assessed correlation of technical and non-technical skills before and after the education and performance in real-life vs simulation intubation.

Detailed Description

The aim of this trial is to study the effects of simulation education on the action of the group managing patient's airway in the intensive care unit (ICU). Before simulations investigators will video-record 20 real-world intubations. Consequently will be run simulations to whole staff of the ICU. After the education further 20 real-world intubations will be recorded. Also simulations are recorded. From the videos investigators assess technical and non-technical skills of the group before and after simulation education, correlations between groups and influence of the education on action of the group. On the first part of the study, hypothesis is that group's good non-technical skills improve also technical skills. On the second part of the study hypothesis is that performing well in simulation correlates with performing well in real-world situation and teams with less experience the correlation is stronger.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
correlation of group performance between simulation and real-life intubations	2 years	Investigators will study if technical and non-technical skills assessed with appropriate measurement tool like ANTS and JIT-PAPPS will correlate between simulation intubations and real-life intubations adjusted for experience of the group
correlation between technical and non-technical skills	2 years	Investigators will study if technical and non-technical skills assessed with appropriate measurement tool like ANTS and JIT-PAPPS will correlate before and after simulation education

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
change of the group performance	2 years	Investigators will study if technical and non-technical skills assessed with appropriate measurement tool like ANTS and JIT-PAPPS will change after the simulation intervention
