简要总结
The use of a pre-arrival and pre-departure trauma checklist to optimize care has not yet been studied. The Alberta Children's Hospital (ACH) Trauma Checklist was developed by the ACH Resuscitation Council with input from the ACH Trauma Program. The purpose of this study is to determine if the introduction of the ACH Trauma Checklist as a cognitive aid, coupled with an educational session, will improve clinical performance in a simulated environment. The investigators plan to conduct a pilot, randomized control trial assessing the impact of the ACH trauma checklist on time to critical interventions on a simulated pediatric patient by multidisciplinary teams. The investigators hypothesize that teams who use a trauma checklist as a cognitive aid will have faster initiation of key clinical interventions within a simulated pediatric trauma resuscitation. Improvements in performance in a simulated environment with this tool may translate to similar results in the clinical setting.
详细描述
Research Aims:
Aim 1: To evaluate the effectiveness of a pre-arrival, pre-departure trauma checklist on improving time to initiation of key clinical interventions in a simulated pediatric trauma scenario
Aim 2: To evaluate the impact of a pre-arrival, pre-departure trauma checklist on completion of primary and secondary survey tasks as demonstrated by an Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) performance tool.
Aim 3: To evaluate the cognitive task load of a trauma checklist on emergency department physicians during a simulated trauma resuscitation scenario.
Aim 4: To describe patterns of eye movement of a trauma team leader in a simulated scenario in relation to critical patient interventions and team communication.

研究组 & 干预措施
Control Arm
In the control arm, teams will not receive a copy of the checklist for use.
Checklist Arm
In the intervention arm, the participants will watch a 10 minute recorded educational video demonstrating the use of the trauma checklist prior to their simulation scenario. These teams will subsequently receive a copy of the checklist for use during their simulation scenario.
干预措施: Checklist (Other)
