ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Previous studies demonstrated that pretraining video-assisted debriefing (VAD) with trainees' errors (TE) videotaped in a skills pretest improved skill learning of basic life support (BLS). However, conducting a pretest and preparing TE video examples is resource intensive. Exposing individual trainee's errors to peers might be a threat to learners' psychological safety. We hypothesized pretraining VAD with simulated errors (SE, performed by actors) might have the same beneficial effect on skills learning as pretraining VAD with TE, but avoid drawbacks of TE. METHODS: Three hundred twenty-two third-year medical students were randomized into 3 groups (the control [C], TE, SE). A videotaped BLS skills pretest was conducted in 3 groups. Then, group C received traditional training with concurrent feedback. Video-assisted debriefing with TE in the pretest or SE was delivered in groups TE or SE, respectively, followed by BLS training without any feedback. Basic life support skills were retested 1 week later (posttest). Students completed a survey to express their preference to TE or SE for VAD in the future. RESULTS: Higher BLS skills scores were observed in groups TE (85.7 ± 7.0) and SE (86.8 ± 7.5) in the posttest, compared with group C (68.7 ± 13.3, P < 0.001). No skills difference was observed between group TE and SE in the posttest. More trainees (65.8%) preferred SE for VAD. CONCLUSIONS: Pretraining VAD with SE had an equivalent beneficial effect as VAD with TE on BLS skills learning in medical students. More trainees preferred SE for VAD with regard to psychological safety.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Pre-training evaluation and feedback have been shown to improve medical students' skills acquisition of basic life support (BLS) immediately following training. The impact of such training on BLS skills retention is unknown. This study was conducted to investigate effects of pre-training evaluation and feedback on BLS skills retention in medical students. METHODS: Three hundred and thirty 3rd year medical students were randomized to two groups, the control group (C group) and pre-training evaluation and feedback group (EF group). Each group was subdivided into four subgroups according to the time of retention-test (at 1-, 3-, 6-, 12-month following the initial training). After a 45-min BLS lecture, BLS skills were assessed (pre-training evaluation) in both groups before training. Following this, the C group received 45 min training. 15 min of group feedback corresponding to students' performance in pre-training evaluation was given only in the EF group that was followed by 30 min of BLS training. BLS skills were assessed immediately after training (post-test) and at follow up (retention-test). RESULTS: No skills difference was observed between the two groups in pre-training evaluation. Better skills acquisition was observed in the EF group (85.3 ± 7.3 vs. 68.1 ± 12.2 in C group) at post-test (p<0.001). In all retention-test, better skills retention was observed in each EF subgroup, compared with its paired C subgroup. CONCLUSIONS: Pre-training evaluation and feedback improved skills retention in the EF group for 12 months after the initial training, compared with the control group.
