Advanced Modular Manikin and Surgical Team Experience During a Trauma Simulation: Results of a Single-Blinded Randomized Trial.

摘要: OBJECTIVE To assess whether an integrated Advanced Modular Manikin (AMM) provides improved participant experience compared to use of peripheral simulators alone, during a standardized trauma team scenario. BACKGROUND Simulation-based training has been shown improve performance. address limitations existing manikin the AMM platform was created, that enables interconnectedness, interoperability and integration multiple ("peripherals") into adaptable, comprehensive system. METHODS A randomized single-blinded, cross-over study with two conditions employed learner differences when using versus simulators. First responders, anesthesiologists, surgeons rated their workload in 3-scene Participant ratings were focus groups conducted obtain insight experience. RESULTS Fourteen teams (n=42) participated. Team higher for condition peripherals (Cohen's d = .25, p .016). varied by background first responders rating significantly anesthesiologists (p < .001). Higher observed .35, .014) driven primarily anesthesiologist ratings. Focus revealed participants preferred based upon its increased realism, physiologic responsiveness, feedback provided on interventions. CONCLUSION This evaluation suggests benefits over individual potential expand simulation-based learning opportunities enhance experience, especially surgeons.
