“…[42][43][44] It would be intuitive to assume that any such DST could improve adherence to guidelines, but we and others have shown that simply having guidelines in front of the clinician does not guarantee adherence. 9,45,46 Specific work is needed to investigate the human factors in each application. In addition, the quizzes used in this study were not created using rigorous psychometric methods; given their moderate degree of consistency (Cronbach's alpha coefficients), it is possible that the DST might perform differently (better or worse) if different assessment tools were used.…”

BACKGROUND-The 2007 American College of Cardiologists/American Heart Association Guidelines on Perioperative Cardiac Evaluation and Care for Noncardiac Surgery is the standard for perioperative cardiac evaluation. Recent work has shown residents and anesthesiologists do not apply these guidelines when tested. This research hypothesized that a decision support tool would improve adherence to this consensus guideline.

“…(7,9,13,14) Professional training is directly linked to giving the patient the best chance of success in recovering from the crisis by means of a coordinated multidisciplinary team such as a rapid response team (RRT). (7) The creation of rapid response teams within healthcare institutions has increased in parallel with the increased interest in improving the quality of care.…”

The objective of this study was to assess the knowledge of the nursing professionals in a surgical center about malignant hyperthermia. This is a descriptive exploratory study on malignant hyperthermia conducted with mid- and high-level nursing professionals in the surgical center of an institution located in the city of São Paulo, where the research was conducted between August and September 2013. Analysis of the data was descriptive and the average of the correct answers was compared using Student's t-test. Among the 96 participants, the two items in which at least 70% of the team showed knowledge were: the definition of malignant hyperthermia and the professionals involved in the health care provided. With respect to all test items, 70% of nurses answered 50% correctly. The same percentage of mid-level professionals answered only 20% correctly. There was no statistically significant difference between the professional categories. This study revealed insufficient knowledge on the part of the nursing team about malignant hyperthermia.

“…The use of surgical-crisis checklists has already been explored in high-fidelity simulation [1]. In truly time-critical situations, training in the use of clear and standardized memory prompts may aid reactions to surprising and startling events.…”
