Resum
Objective: To assess acquisition of nontechnical skills (NTS) through clinical simulation cases by healthcare personnel who participated in a Crisis Resource Management (CRM) training program for the initial care of polytraumatisms. Design: Pre-and postintervention study. Setting: Acute-care teaching hospital in Sabadell, Barcelona (Spain). Participants: Healthcare personnel that composed teamworks providing initial care to polytraumatized patients attended 12-hour simulation training using a SimMan 3G manikin and performed exercises corresponding to 3 clinical scenarios. All simulations lasted 15 to 25 min and were video recorded. The CATS Assessment tool was used for analysis of teamwork NTS, which included 21 behaviors clustered into the categories of coordination, situational awareness, cooperation, communication, and crisis situation. Results: Three editions of the CRM training course were carried out with 12 trauma team groups composed by team leader, anesthesiologist, general surgeon, traumatologist, registered nurses, nursing assistant, and stretcher bearer. There were statistically significant (p <0.001) improvements in the speed of key times of total duration of case resolution, transfusion of hemoderivatives, Focused Assessment Sonography for Trauma, and chest and pelvic X-rays. The percentage of cases correctly resolved improved from 75% to 91.7% but differences were not statistically significant (p = 0.625). Precourse and postcourse results of CATS scores showed a statistically significant increase in the weighted total score as well as in all behavioral categories of coordination, situational awareness, cooperation, communication, and crisis situation. Conclusions: Simulation-based training of NTS was associated with significant improvements in teamwork behaviors in the setting of the initial care of patients with polytraumatisms.
