Evaluation of resuscitation proficiency in simulations: The impact of a simultaneous cognitive task

In order to evaluate the impact of simulation complexity on resuscitation skill performance, 15 pediatric residents were observed in bag-valve-mask ventilation on an infant manikin. Performance was evaluated in a simple exercise in which ventilation was performed as a single isolated task. For each...

Zusammenfassung:	In order to evaluate the impact of simulation complexity on resuscitation skill performance, 15 pediatric residents were observed in bag-valve-mask ventilation on an infant manikin. Performance was evaluated in a simple exercise in which ventilation was performed as a single isolated task. For each subject, this was compared to performance when a cognitive task involving clinical problem solving was simultaneously presented. Performance was expressed as frequency, tidal volume, and estimated hypothetical alveolar Pco2 in each resuscitation. A correlation was observed (P
