“…Observational measures of the uptake of each subintervention were used to gauge the effectiveness of the whiteboard, prebriefing, and teamwork behaviors (eTable 1 and eTable 2 in the Supplement). [28][29][30][31][32][33] Sixty-nine patients in the postintervention phase were studied with an additional observer who used an observation template that collected a range of measures to ascertain the use of these interventions. For the other interventions, appropriate evaluation methods were chosen to demonstrate effectiveness or uptake.…”

“…Measurements of leadership, communication, decision making, situation awareness, cooperation and resource management, were made with significant improvements in performance [6] . The composition of the resuscitation team, roles and responsibilities were not defined in either of these studies however; both indicate that leadership and non-technical skills can be improved through training [5,7] .…”

Aim of study: This study aimed to investigate the attitudes of personnel working in emergency departments on the constitution of a resuscitation team in particular the perceptions of the family liaison role. Methods:A paper base survey on family presence during resuscitation was distributed to emergency personnel working in 18 public departments in the state of Victoria, Australia.Results: A combination of nurses (n = 282) and doctors (n = 65) working in rural and metropolitan emergency departments, identified seven unique resuscitation team roles. Resuscitation teams were identified as comprising of three doctors, three nurses and one other which could be either. Respondents identified seven unique roles as consisting of a team leader, airway doctor, airway nurse, procedure doctor and procedure nurse, drugs nurse and a scribe. The respondents identified the following components as key to discussions with family members; emergency personnel, reassurance, diagnosis, regular updates, intervention, and prognosis (ER-DRIP). Conclusion:The acronym ER-DRIP can be used as a reminder to emergency staff when speaking with family members during resuscitation events ensuring they receive all the necessary information and support.

Studies using this tool have demonstrated that higher leadership scores correlate with better clinical performance, shorter time to disposition, and fewer unreported resuscitation tasks [5,6]. Studies evaluating trauma leadership and completeness of trauma resuscitations led by Pediatric Emergency Medicine (PEM) physicians are sparse.…”

“…Different measures and scoring systems have been used to assess efficacy of team leaders and multidisciplinary trauma teams. A checklist initially designed to measure non-technical leadership capabilities in the aviation industry has been modified to evaluate team leaders of trauma resuscitations [5]. This T-NOTECHS rubric, or modified "Trauma NOn-TECHnical leadership Score," has leader upon arrival.…”

Background: A modified non-technical skills scale for trauma (T-NOTECHS) for assessment of leadership skills in trauma resuscitations has been described in surgical literature. The utility of this tool with Pediatric Emergency Medicine (PEM) providers has not been explored. The objectives of this study were to assess the utility of the T-NOTECHS scoring tool in the pediatric setting and identify barriers to leading a thorough and efficient trauma evaluation.
