RECRUITING

NCT06954519

Impact of Mental Imagery on the Non-technical Skills of Anaesthesia Residents

Sponsor: Reims University hospital

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The goal of this randomized trial is to learn if mental imagery works to improve non technical skills in residents. It will also learn about knowledge and technical skills. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does mental imagery of a cognitive aid improve non technical skills of residents ? Does mental imagery of a cognitive aid improve technical skills and knowledge of residents ? The invastigators will compare repeated mental imagery to repeated simple reading of a cognitive aid to see if mental imagery works to train non technical skills. Participants will: * participate in an initial training on neonatal resuscitation * be randomized in two groups: mental imagery or simple reading * Repeat training according to the group with predefined intervalls during 6 months * be evaluated 6 months after the initial training

Official title: Impact of Mental Imagery of Cognitive Neonatal Resuscitation Aid Compared to Simple Reading on the Non-technical Skills of Anaesthesia Residents Six Months After Initial Training: a Randomized Study

Interventions

OTHER

Mental imagery

The principle of guided mental imagery and helping students to mentally represent the key stages of a process, using an animated slideshow full of evocative elements, which we created specifically for this study. The mental imagery will be repeated by the students several times independently until the evaluation simulation at 6 months based on reminders via messages from investigators.

OTHER

Cognitive aid reading

Participants of the control group will only read the cognitive aid on neonatal resuscitation at the same intervalls than the experimentation group
