The quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) affects hemodynamics, survival, and neurological outcomes following pediatric arrest (CPA). Most health care professionals fail to perform CPR within established American Heart Association guidelines.To determine whether "just-in-time" (JIT) training with visual feedback (VisF) before CPA or real-time VisF during improves the chest compressions (CCs) simulated CPA.Prospective, randomized, 2 × factorial-design trial explicit methods (July 1,...

Abstract Understanding what interventions and approaches are currently being used to improve the knowledge, skills, effectiveness of instructors in simulation-based education is an integral step for carving out future simulation. The current study a scoping review on topic, uncover known about faculty development education. We screened 3259 abstracts included 35 studies this review. Our findings reveal clear image that landscape simulation widely diverse, revealing array foundations,...

Simulation is effective at improving healthcare students' knowledge and communication. Despite increasingly interprofessional approaches to medicine, most studies demonstrate these effects in isolation. We enhanced an existing internal medicine curriculum with immersive simulations. For ten months, third‐year medical students senior nursing were recruited for four, 1‐hour Scenarios included myocardial infarction, pancreatitis/hyperkalemia, upper gastrointestinal bleed, chronic obstructive...

Simulation faculty development has become a high priority for the past couple of years because simulation programs have rapidly expanded in health systems and universities worldwide. A formalized, structured model developing quality facilitators is helpful to support sustain this continued growth field simulation. In article, we present tiered plan that been implemented at university United States includes essentials development. We discuss rationale benefits program as well describe our...

Introduction. Home ventilator programs (HVP) have been developed to train parents of critically ill children. Simulators are used in health care, but not often for parents. We added simulation our HVP and assessed parents’ response. Methods. In July 2008, the at Children’s Alabama parent training. Debriefing was provided after training session reinforce correct skills critical thinking. Follow-up surveys were completed Results. Fifteen families participated. All confident changing...

Genetics professionals are often required to deliver difficult news patients and families. This is a challenging task, but one that many genetics trainees have limited opportunity master during training. true for several reasons, including relative scarcity of these events an understandable hesitation supervisors allowing trainee provide such high stakes information.

The aim of this study was to investigate dental students' long-term retention clinical communication skills learned in a second-year standardized patient simulation at one U.S. school. Retention measured by performance with an actual during their fourth year. high-fidelity exercise focused on took place the spring term second effect comparing fourth-year two groups: those who had participated (intervention group; Class 2016) and not (no intervention/control 2015). In no intervention group,...

Body dissatisfaction and attempts to lose weight are increasingly common among adolescents. Research has identified a number of factors significantly associated with body image, including sex, media, parental relationship, puberty as well popularity. It was hypothesized that popular adolescents would have greater dissatisfaction, more distortion, lower esteem. From rural high school 116 10th 12th grade students were surveyed. Two teachers from the also completed Image Figure scale for each...

Objectives: Crisis resource management principles dictate appropriate distribution of mental and/or physical workload so as not to overwhelm any one team member. Workload during pediatric emergencies is well studied. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration-Task Load Index a multidimensional tool designed assess validated in multiple settings. Low defined less than 40, moderate 40–60, greater 60 signify high workloads. Our hypothesis that among both leaders members simulated sepsis...
