简要总结
Background:
While medical advances for in-hospital care rapidly evolve, a mainstay of effective pre-hospital care remains the ability to treat medical emergencies such as anaphylaxis, prolonged seizure, overdose, or uncontrolled bleeding, through rapid administration of appropriate medication. Autoinjectors are used globally to deliver medications in a timely manner, often in environments where immediate access to medical facilities is limited. Rapid administration of intramuscular medication delivery is essential where oral or intravenous delivery is either not possible or ineffective. The purpose of the proposed study seeks to determine the efficiency various types of medication injection administration.
详细描述
Research Objective:
To understand the efficiency of injectable medication delivery in the Canadian Forces and civilian world for improved care delivery in military and pre-hospital environments.
Participants:
Approximately thirty (30) participants will be recruited for the study.

盲法说明
The order of administration for each scenario and injection type will be randomized to exclude any bias. To minimize risk to participants, active drug products and live/loaded autoinjectors will not be used. The target injection will be placed in an inanimate object (e.g. orange) or phantom simulator (i.e. inanimate object such as a gel or organic material such as jello or fruit to simulate an injection experience).

结局指标
主要结局
Change in medication Injection/delivery time for each trial
时间窗: immediately after intervention
Time in seconds will be measured from the start of the scenario and stopped once the medication has been delivered to the orange.
次要结局
- Number of injection failures and/or injuries associated with each trial(immediately after intervention)
