Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this observational study is to compare the visual interests between residents in high-fidelity simulation practice

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Eighteen first year residents were asked to take part in a nine-minute scenario based on an ACLS bradycardia algorithm in which a high-fidelity mannequin required external pacing. The scenario was considered a success if the material was correctly set by the participant to obtain electrical and mechanical pacing in nine minutes. All participants were wearing Tobii Glasses® which is a mobile eye-tracking system that automatically aggregates gaze data. Infrared markers were placed in the simulation room to create Area of Interest (AOI), from which results were obtained. Three AOI were created: the vital signs monitor, the defibrillator/pacing unit and the head of the patient. Eye-tracking data were analyzed using the Tobii Studio® program.
