Formation of Health Professionals Through in Situ Simulation to Improve Performances During the Initial Step of Thrombectomy for Ischemic Strokes (OPTISS)

Optimization of Performances During Thrombectomy Through In Situ Simulation

The thrombectomy is an emergency care provided as soon as possible to selected patients suffering from ischemic strokes. Many steps are necessary to prepare this specialized procedure of interventional neuroradiology, including installation and preparation of the patient for this act. This first and essential time required the intervention of many health professionals.

The approach consists of a series of formation through in situ simulations for these health professionals, in order to improve and optimize this first step of the procedure (from the installation of the patient to the percutaneous punch by the neuroradiologist).

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Intervention / Treatment

Team of health professionals; Team of health professionals involved in thrombectomy (including specialized nurses in anesthesiology, anesthesiologists, neuroradiologist and technicians specialized in electro-radiology) will participate to in situ simulation.

Other: In situ simulation; Team involved in thrombectomy procedures will be trained by in situ simulation. Simulation will reproduce the initial step of a thrombectomy procedure, i.e from from the installation of the patient to the percutaneous punch by the neuroradiologist. Simulation will be followed by a debriefing focused on the team performance. Three in situ simulation sessions will be realized by each team.
