What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Anaphylaxis Checklist of Core Decision Making Steps	Expert consensus based checklists of critical scenario actions on a mannequin based crisis scenario. Student scenario performance graded from 0 to 45, with higher scores representing a better performance.	one week post exposure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Usability Score	Likert scale (5 point) based assessment of software usability. Higher scores on a scale of 1 to 5 represent a better software system usability.	Immediately after exposure
Learning Satisfaction Score	Likert scale (5 point) based assessment of learning satisfaction. Higher scores on a scale of 1 to 5 represent a greater degree of learning satisfaction.	Immediately after exposure
Time required to complete critical crisis related tasks	Measured time until critical scenario management events occur	one week post exposure
