Relaxation Before Debriefing and Memorization in High Fidelity Simulation in Healthcare (RELAXSIMHF)

Effect of a Debriefing Conversational Relaxation on Memorization of Critical Key Points in Resident High Fidelity Simulation Education Program

Resident in advanced medical training participated to high fidelity simulation education program in Lyon. Alternatively 1 or 2 resident act during a scenario while the others observe in a teletransmission closeby room. Debriefing follows the critical scenario in witch resident are involved. The investigators are testing the effects of five minute of conversational relaxation before the debriefing on the anxiety level and memorization of key points each scénario on participant and observer.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Anxiety
• Intervention / Treatment: Behavioral: relaxation

Detailed Description

Resident in advanced medical training participated to high fidelity simulation education program in Lyon. This is part of a curriculum and each year they go throw a specific simulation session in groups of 3 to 8 residents with same specific thematic education goals. 3 to 4 differents scénario are run every simulation session during 4 to 5 hours, every day 2 similar session are run with 2 different groups of same level residents. Alternatively 1 or 2 resident act during a scenario while the others observe in a teletransmission room. Debriefing follows the critical scenario in witch resident are involved. The investigators are testing the effects of five minute of conversational relaxation before the debriefing on the anxiety level and memorization of key points each scénario on participant and observer. Relaxation is done reading a text outloud by an instructor before the debriefing. Each scenario is run in the morning and the afternoon and alternatively have relaxation or not. evaluation is done on participant of the scenario and resident observer of the situation. The Investigators ask participant for demographic data, anxiety scale test, multiple anxiety visual analogic scale. At the end of every scenario 5 clinical key point of teh scenario are exposed. At 3 month the investigators call back every participant to ask them to remember these 5 points for the scenario they were involved in and one of the other they observed.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
memorization of the active scenario	5 key points for the resolution of the scenario, 1 point per key points recalled by the participant, metrics from 0 to 5.	3 month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
anxiety	visual analog scale : metrics from 0 to 100 mm	min 1
debriefing	score of quality of the debriefing questionnaire of 6 items quoted, total score from 25 to 175	min 1
observing	visual analog scale : metrics from 0 to 100 mm	min 1
memorization of the passive scenario	5 key points for the resolution of the scenario, 1 point per key points recalled by the participant, metrics from 0 to 5.	3 month
