The simulation-based assessment of pediatric rapid response teams.
The researchers created scenarios of simulated decompensating pediatric patients to train pediatric rapid response teams (RRTs) and to determine whether the scenario scores provide a valid assessment of RRT performance with the hypothesis that RRTs led by intensivists-in-training would be better prepared to manage the scenarios than teams led by nurse practitioners. The greater scores achieved by intensivist-in-training-led teams provides some evidence to support the validity of the assessment.
