Abstract
Introduction
Sepsis is one of the leading causes of death for children. Simulation provides a framework for improvement in teamwork and communication, which are essential skills in conditions such as sepsis, where early recognition is crucial.
The purpose of this mixed methods project was to understand the effects of adding sandbox Electronic Health Record (EHR) on realism and team dynamics. This study was conducted during multidisciplinary (pediatric residents and nurses) in-situ sepsis simulations.
Methods
This study was conducted during multidisciplinary (pediatric residents and nurses) in-situ sepsis simulations.
Groups were randomized to receive EHR or paper. Team clinical times were recorded. After completion, participants completed a survey about attitudes and workload, and some completed qualitative interviews.
Results
Participants in both groups wanted to have EHR in future simulations. Differences in workload and clinical times were not significantly different. Themes that emerged were: EHR improved realism allowing for skills practice but could be a distraction. Key elements for the simulated EHR design were identified and aligned with prior literature.
Conclusions
Acute care simulations that utilized EHR were perceived by learners to improve realism and can allow for skills practice.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Simulation in Nursing is an international, peer reviewed journal published online monthly. Clinical Simulation in Nursing is the official journal of the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) and reflects its mission to advance the science of healthcare simulation.
We will review and accept articles from other health provider disciplines, if they are determined to be of interest to our readership. The journal accepts manuscripts meeting one or more of the following criteria:
Research articles and literature reviews (e.g. systematic, scoping, umbrella, integrative, etc.) about simulation
Innovative teaching/learning strategies using simulation
Articles updating guidelines, regulations, and legislative policies that impact simulation
Leadership for simulation
Simulation operations
Clinical and academic uses of simulation.
