Effectiveness of interventions to improve patient handover in surgery: A systematic review

TL;DR: Improvements in information transfer may be achieved through checklist- or proforma-based interventions in surgical handover, and initial data appear promising but future research must be backed by robust study design, relevant outcomes, and clinical implementation strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experienced Endovascular Interventionalists Objectively Improve their Skills by Attending Carotid Artery Stent Training Courses

TL;DR: This study has objectively proven a benefit for experienced interventionalists to attend CAS courses for skills acquisition measured by a VR simulator to offer participants an insight into their skills and objectively audit course efficacy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of pharmacological enhancement on the cognitive and clinical psychomotor performance of sleep-deprived doctors: a randomized controlled trial.

TL;DR: The results suggest that fatigued doctors might benefit from pharmacological enhancement in situations that require efficient information processing, flexible thinking, and decision making under time pressure, however, no improvement is likely to be seen in the performance of basic procedural tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cognitive training improves clinically relevant outcomes during simulated endovascular procedures

TL;DR: Cognitive-skills training significantly improves the quality of end-product on a VR endovascular simulator, and is fundamental prior to assessment of inexperienced subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unannounced in situ simulations: integrating training and clinical practice

TL;DR: In situ simulation for unannounced cardiac arrest training should be considered by every hospital as part of a patient safety initiative, with many potential benefits compared with other forms of simulation training.
