“…Within the General Surgery literature, both analog 8 and electronic 2,17 simulation techniques have been demonstrated to improve surgical skill in randomized controlled trials. Similar trials have demonstrated effective simulator training in Gynecology, 12 Anesthesiology, 10 and Endovascular Surgery. 11 In the orthopedic literature, much of the early research has focused on arthroscopic procedures.…”

“…In the session in which we observed the effect of a warm-up sample, perceived intensity was significantly lower in the first trial than in subsequent trials. Several studies targeted at athletes (Cervantes & Snyder, 2011;Fradkin, Zazryn, & Smoliga, 2010;Shellock & Prentice, 1985), surgeons (Lee et al, 2012;Samuelson et al, 2016;Weller, 2016), and vocalists (Moorcroft & Kenny, 2012 reported that physical warm-up improves physical performance. Furthermore, other studies reported improvement of cognitive performance following physical warm-up (Elsworthy, Dascombe, & Burke, 2013;Hogan, Mata, & Carstensen, 2013;Pennington & Hanna, 2013) and improvement of cognitive performance following cognitive warm-up (Dinner & Duncan, 1959;Thune, 1951).…”

To improve the reliability of sensory evaluation, it is necessary to minimize response bias. In this study, we investigated the effect of a warm‐up sample on time–intensity evaluation of after‐flavor. Untrained panelists evaluated continuously perceived intensity of bitterness and retronasal aroma, using four types of samples (two brands of coffee beverages × two types of lids). Half of participants evaluated bitterness intensity in the first session and retronasal aroma intensity in the second session, whereas the other half evaluated them in the opposite order. Each session consisted of four trials, and we regarded the first trial sample of each session as a warm‐up. Results revealed that perceived intensity was significantly lower in the first trial than in the following trials, and that the time courses of the second, third, and fourth trials were similar except when participants evaluated bitterness intensity in the second session. In other words, the use of a warm‐up sample stabilized the performance of time–intensity evaluation of bitterness and retronasal aroma in the first session. Furthermore, no warm‐up sample was needed in the second session when participants evaluated bitterness intensity, but a warm‐up was needed when they evaluated retronasal aroma intensity. Practical application Based on the results of this study, we concluded that the use of a warm‐up sample stabilized performance in time–intensity evaluation of after‐flavor by untrained panelists. We proposed that in order to obtain reliable performance in time–intensity evaluation of after‐flavor, untrained panelists should be provided a training trial using warm‐up sample before staring the test trials.

“…Intentions are more likely to translate into actual actions when they are spelt out in situation‐specific plans . This was supported by a recent trial showing the positive effect of prior virtual practice of specific technical skills for fibreoptic intubation on subsequent success of performing the same procedure on real patients . In comparison, when a critical situation is ‘unpredictable’, planning appears less relevant and cognitive aids are more valuable .…”

Team planning discussion and clinical performance: a prospective, randomised, controlled simulation trial

Planning held before emergency management of a critical situation might be an invaluable asset for optimising team preparation. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a brief planning discussion improved team performance in a simulated critical care situation. Forty-four pairs of trainees in anaesthesia and intensive care were randomly allocated to either an intervention or control group before participating in a standardised simulated scenario. Twelve different scenarios were utilised. Groups were stratified by postgraduate year and simulated scenario, and a facilitator was embedded in the scenario. In the intervention group, the pairs had an oral briefing followed by a 4-min planning discussion before starting the simulation. The primary end-point was clinical performance, as rated by two independent blinded assessors on a score of 0-100 using video records and pre-established scenario-specific checklists. Crisis resource management and stress response (cognitive appraisal ratio) were also assessed. Two pairs were excluded for technical reasons. Clinical performance scores were higher in the intervention group; mean (SD) 51 (9) points vs. 46 (9) in the control group, p = 0.039. The planning discussion was also associated with higher crisis resource management scores and lower cognitive appraisal ratios, reflecting a positive response. A 4-min planning discussion before a simulated critical care situation improved clinical team performance and cognitive appraisal ratios. Team planning should be integrated into medical education and clinical practice.

Simulation as a set-up for technical proficiency: can a virtual warm-up improve live fibre-optic intubation?

Abstract: Virtual warm-up significantly improved performance by residents of FOI in live patients with normal airway anatomy, as measured both by speed and by a scaled evaluation of skills.
