“…Our data were comparable with those in a previous study, which explored validity and reliability of the TEAM and ETD tools 13 17 18. CTS was employed in an observational study, which did not specifically explore its psychometric properties but evaluated the effect of a training programme on teamwork and communication during trauma care.…”

BackgroundTeamwork training has been included in several emergency medicine (EM) curricula; the aim of this study was to compare different scales’ performance in teamwork evaluation during simulation for EM residents.MethodsIn the period October 2013–June 2014, we performed bimonthly high-fidelity simulation sessions, with novice (I–III year, group 1 (G1)) and senior (IV–V year, group 2 (G2)) EM residents; scenarios were designed to simulate management of critical patients. Videos were assessed by three independent raters with the following scales: Emergency Team Dynamics (ETD), Clinical Teamwork Scale (CTS) and Team Emergency Assessment Measure (TEAM). In the period March–June, after each scenario, participants completed the CTS and ETD.ResultsThe analysis based on 18 sessions showed good internal consistency and good to fair inter-rater reliability for the three scales (TEAM, CTS, ETD: Cronbach's α 0.954, 0.954, 0.921; Intraclass Correlation Coefficients (ICC), 0.921, 0.917, 0.608). Single CTS items achieved highly significant ICC results, with 12 of the total 13 comparisons achieving ICC results ≥0.70; a similar result was confirmed for 4 of the total 11 TEAM items and 1 of the 8 total ETD items. Spearman's r was 0.585 between ETD and CTS, 0.694 between ETD and TEAM, and 0.634 between TEAM and CTS (scales converted to percentages, all p<0.0001). Participants gave themselves a better evaluation compared with external raters (CTS: 101±9 vs 90±9; ETD: 25±3 vs 20±5, all p<0.0001).ConclusionsAll examined scales demonstrated good internal consistency, with a slightly better inter-rater reliability for CTS compared with the other tools.

“…However, there is a need to consider how skills should be assessed during simulation and whether the simulation is the optimum method of assessing a particular skill development or skill competency. In order for simulation to work well, lecturers need expert support and advice to increase their confidence and capabilities in using simulation activities (Dow, 2012b;FoxYoung et al, 2012;McKenna et al, 2011). It helps if there are links to clinical practice to infuse "fidelity" and support realism during simulations.…”

“…There is the need to have preparation time, adequate knowledge, appropriate venues, technical/academic support, sufficient funding and appropriate equipment if the simulation is to be successful . Low resourcing, lack of preparation and low confidence were issues found by FoxYoung et al (2012) in their focus group research with Australian midwifery academics. In this study the midwives were asked to discuss barriers and enablers for simulation in midwifery education.…”

JOURNALMidwifery practice arrangements which sustain caseloading Lead Maternity Carer midwives in New Zealand. The impact on midwives of their first stillbirth.Clinically overweight and obese mothers and low rates of breastfeeding: Exploring women's perspectives.ABC by LMC midwives: an innovative intervention to support women to become smoke-free in pregnancy. Guidelines for Contributors to the New Zealand College of Midwives JournalThe Journal focuses on midwifery issues and women's health, it has a readership of midwives and others involved in pregnancy and childbearing, both in New Zealand and overseas.The Journal is printed once each year (December) and uses electronic article based publishing so that papers are published and disseminated as soon as possible. The advantages of article based publishing are:• Articles are processed more quickly • Articles can be disseminated electronically, making them readily available• Improved ability to cite immediately without the need to wait until an issue is complete and then printed• Improved global availability, as each paper is provided with a DOI and put onto the New Zealand College of Midwives website three months after first circulation.Within electronic article based publishing the editors build each issue as an "issue in progress" from papers that have been submitted and accepted for publication. Once an issue is complete, it is printed.The Journal welcomes original research, literature reviews, exemplars/practice stories/case studies, audits and research methodology articles. In general, articles should be between 500-4000 words. It is important that articles submitted for review have not been published previously in any form.The expectation is that articles protect confidentiality where necessary, and that evidence of an ethical process of consent has been undertaken. Confirmation that copyright permission has been obtained for any quoted materials is also expected (see section on copyright). All articles are subject to double blind peer review and the editors reserve the right to make the final decision regarding publication of each article. ARTICLE FORMATArticles should be submitted electronically with double line spacing and a left hand margin of 3cm and a size 12 font. The article should be submitted as an electronic file copy in a WORD document or RTF file.Authors should use the following section headings: Abstract, Key words, followed by the introduction and further subheadings, depending on the type of article, to structure the article. The word count must be stated. Diagrams, tables and photographs should be labelled and supplied as computer generated items. Where these are sent separately from the text, the author/s should indicate where they should be positioned in the article.In addition, authors are requested to provide the following details in a separate "Author information" document (this will not be sent to the reviewers):• Name and qualifications• Occupation (current area of practice/expertise)• Email address and daytime phone number for corre...

“…Professional entry students may be exposed to SBE as part of University curricula, although even within a single discipline (midwifery), modality and training hours are reported to vary across programs and institutions . Prior to implementation of the SLE program, access to SBE during rural clinical placements occurred on an ad hoc basis or not at all.…”

The distributed collaborative model substantially increased access to clinical skills training for PES and health professionals in rural and remote locations. Developing the teaching skills of rural clinicians optimised the use of simulation resources. Consequently, health services were able to provide students with flexible and realistic learning opportunities in clinical procedures, communication techniques and teamwork skills.
