Not a clinical picture in the true sense of the word. The aim is to investigate improvements in procedures and team coordination in intra-hospital resuscitation situations (cardiovascular arrest) using simulations in order to increase the quality of treatment and patient safety in emergency situations.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary endpoint (target criterion): No-flow fraction (% of time without chest compressions) during simulated resuscitation. Time of assessment: Throughout the entire resuscitation scenario (approx. 12 minutes) – analysis immediately after completion of each simulation based on the recordings. Data collection: Automatic recording via the simulation manikin software (recording of compression phases and pauses) and supplementary video evaluation by the experimenter to validate the time intervals. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Time to first defibrillation. Deviation of defibrillation intervals and adrenaline administration intervals from ERC guidelines. Time to review reversible causes. Assessment of non-technical team performance (communication, coordination) by nursing staff using the Team Emergency Assessment Measure (TEAM) questionnaire. | — |
