High fidelity medical simulation in the difficult environment of a helicopter: feasibility, self-efficacy and cost

Abstract: BackgroundThis study assessed the feasibility, self-efficacy and cost of providing a high fidelity medical simulation experience in the difficult environment of an air ambulance helicopter.MethodsSeven of 12 EM residents in their first postgraduate year participated in an EMS flight simulation as the flight physician. The simulation used the Laerdal SimMan™ to present a cardiac and a trauma case in an EMS helicopter while running at flight idle. Before and after the simulation, subjects completed visual analog… Show more

“…São essenciais cursos específi-cos, treinamento permanente e avaliações médicas adequadas em intervalos indicados. Estudos norte-americanos demonstram que tem sido realizados treinamentos com equipes aeromédicas, através de simuladores que funcionam a partir de baterias e compressores de ar dentro de helicópteros, capazes de reproduzir uma situação real de emergência comandados por monitores e laptops (7) . Dentre os quatro estudos indexados na base de dados Lilacs, observou-se que 50,0% (n=2) se referia à área de educação e pesquisa, abordando o perfil, a formação e os aspectos legais do enfermeiro de bordo (1999) e a fisiologia do vôo (2000).…”
