Effect of Fatigue on Regional Anaesthesia Task

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The adverse effects of sleep related fatigue are significant, impacting on doctors' health, wellbeing, performance and ultimately their safety and that of their patients'. Trainees are at an increased risk of fatigue because they routinely, and are increasingly, working long hours, and exposed to excessive and high intensity workloads. With increasing numbers of patient consultations, there is a higher risk of making poorer quality clinical decisions (i.e. decision fatigue). The excessive workloads experienced by doctors can cause fatigue through the requirement for sustained attention over long periods of time, particularly when performing complex and mentally demanding tasks. Our main objective is to study the difference between the fatigued and non-fatigued state of anaesthetists and on their ability to perform an ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve blockade task. We hypothesise that fatigue will result in a clinically significant reduction in the objective structured assessment scores of anaesthetists who are performing an ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve blockade task compared to their scores when they are non-fatigued.
