Filter by:Sleep deprivation impacts performance of shift workers in health care. Anesthesiologists are a population at risk that endures stressful situations and changing working hours. The decreased performance could be the cause for undesirable events. Power-napping is known to be an efficient technique to mitigate the detrimental effects of sleep deprivation and is a feasible measure to implement in critical care units. Still there are few insights that measure the clinical relevance in the field. With the high-fidelity simulations this study is able to measure clinical performance and test for those effects. Therefore we propose a prospective, monocentric study to evaluate a power-napping protocol (less than 30min)
A multicenter study in Ukrainian hospitals on compliance with the requirements for responding to critical cases in the operating room, and the availability of relevant documentation and checklists.
The harmful effects of stress on health professionals are expressed both in terms of their health (physical or mental) and the quality of work (reduced memory capacity, deterioration in patient care). These adverse effects highlight the importance of implementing effective coping strategies and/or early learning of stress management methods in medical training programs. Relaxation breathing techniques coupled with heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback is one of the new techniques used to reduce the stress level. No research has yet tested the effects of HRV induced by relaxation breathing technique before managing a simulated critical situation.
The objective of this study is to look at critical events in the pediatric operating room in a retrospective and now prospective fashion to determine if there are any trends such as age, presence of URI, type of surgery, type of airway, level of hands on provider, or other predictive markers associated these events so that we may gain some insight into perhaps reducing the incidence of these events or simply be more attune to the increased risks in certain situations.
