• Registration Number: NCT05940103
• Lead Sponsor: Stanford University

Brief Summary

This is an international, collaborative study evaluating the non-technical skills (NTS) of anesthesiology residents. The goal is to explore the capability of performing a remote, international AR simulation for the purpose of assessing PALS during a medical crisis. Simulation experts in the United States will facilitate the AR simulations with anesthesiology residents in Hong Kong. The medical simulation itself is grounded in traditional best practices in accordance with the American Heart Association.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Mixed Reality Simulation	Augmented Reality (AR)	Participants in the experimental arm will be introduced to workplace training modules through an Augmented Reality (AR) headset.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Individual performance of non-technical skills assessed by Anaesthetist Non-Technical Skills (ANTS)	immediately after simulation	The Anaesthetist Non-Technical Skills (ANTS) scoring system uses four categories assessing task management, teamworking, situation awareness and decision-making (1 to 4 points by categories). The minimum score is 4 and the maximum 16

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
System Usability Scale (SUS) Score	immediately after simulation	The scale has 10 items. Scores ranges from 1-5 (1 = strongly disagree and 5 = strongly agree)
Individual performance of non-technical skills assessed by Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scale (BARS)	immediately after simulation	The BARS scoring system uses four categories assessing situation awareness, decision-making, communication and teamwork. The score ranges from 1 and 9 (1 = poor and 9 = excellent)
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Ergonomic scale	immediately after simulation	The scale has 6 items. Scores ranges from 1-5 (1 = strongly disagree and 5 = strongly agree)
