Comparison of Two TeamSTEPPS® Training Methods on Nurse Failure-to-Rescue Performance

The effectiveness of education in the recognition and management of deteriorating patients: A systematic review

“…The review included twenty quantitative studies (Buckley and Gordon, 2011;Cooper et al, 2013;Crofts et al, 2006;Crofts et al, 2007;Featherstone et al, 2005;Fuhrmann et al, 2009;Gordon and Buckley, 2009;Harvey et al, 2014;Jones et al, 2006;Kelly et al, 2013;Kinsman et al, 2012;Lewis, 2011;Liaw et al, 2011;Liaw et al, 2013;Lindsey and Jenkins, 2013;Ludikhuize et al, 2011;Sittner et al, 2009;Smith and Poplett, 2004;Straka et al, 2012;Theilen et al, 2013), two mixed methods (Hart et al, 2014;Wehbe-Janek et al, 2012) and one qualitative study (Unsworth et al, 2012). The study designs of the quantitative studies were predominantly quasi-experimental and prospective interventional with one time series analysis of patient records (Kinsman et al, 2012).…”

“…Nineteen studies (Buckley and Gordon, 2011;Cooper et al, 2013;Crofts et al, 2006;Crofts et al, 2007;Featherstone et al, 2005;Gordon and Buckley, 2009;Hart et al, 2014;Harvey et al, 2014;Kelly et al, 2013;Kinsman et al, 2012;Lewis, 2011;Liaw et al, 2011;Liaw et al, 2013;Lindsey and Jenkins, 2013;Ludikhuize et al, 2011;Sittner et al, 2009;Smith and Poplett, 2004;Straka et al, 2012;Wehbe-Janek et al, 2012) measured the intervention's impact on perceived or real knowledge or performance, nine (Cooper et al, 2013;Featherstone et al, 2005;Gordon and Buckley, 2009;Hart et al, 2014;Harvey et al, 2014;Kelly et al, 2013;Lewis, 2011;Liaw et al, 2011;Wehbe-Janek et al, 2012) measured human factors or non-technical skills such as confidence, teamwork, leadership and communication, while one study measured the situational awareness of a team leader in a simulated patient deterioration scenario (Cooper et al, 2013). Only two of the studies (Crofts et al, 2007;Sittner et al, 2009) measured retention of skills or knowledge.…”

TeamSTEPPS®: An evidence‐based approach to reduce clinical errors threatening safety in outpatient settings: An integrative review

“…Several studies have evaluated different methods of teaching and implementation of the TeamSTEPPS curriculum including simulation‐based training, virtual learning environments, in‐person didactic sessions, and storytelling as a teaching strategy, as well as case study reviews. While both are known to be effective, SBT was shown to be superior in multiple small studies …”

“…While both are known to be effective, SBT was shown to be superior in multiple small studies. 16,19,30,31 No published prospective randomized control trials have assessed the effect of TeamSTEPPS on communication with clinical error rates and patient satisfaction as either primary or secondary end points. Included studies have relatively small sample sizes and short implementation periods.…”

The impact of web-based and face-to-face simulation on patient deterioration and patient safety: protocol for a multi-site multi-method design

“…Education approaches emphasize the need for active learning in simulated environments that offer authentic learning experiences without risk to real patients [27, 28]. Clinical staff do benefit from simulation-based education in settings which have high fidelity (believability) [26, 29] with consequential reductions in medical errors [30].…”
