Simulated - Based Training
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal of this Simulated Based Program for Peripheral Nerve Blocks is build learning curves in anesthesia residents. The research questions are: How behave the learning curves in a simulate based training program in peripheral nerve blocks in anesthesia residents? Does the learning achieved during the program transferred to the real patient's scenario? Participants will be subjected to 10 simulated training sessions of a sciatic popliteal nerve block, subsequently their performance will be recorded and a global scale will be applied and movements will be measured. In a second stage, the same subjects will perform a block on a real patient to determine the transfer of this simulated learning.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| observational global rating scale scores (GRS) | Pre-intervention: first measurement before simulated-based training. During intervention: We will assess participants after each training session during 10 weeks. Post intervention: measurement once finished the protocol. Up to 12 weeks | At the end of the training, residents performance will be asses using a previous validated GRS (points 0-50) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Total path length (TPL) | Pre-intervention: first measurement before simulated-based training. During intervention: We will assess participants after each training session during 10 weeks. Post intervention: measurement once finished the protocol. Up to 12 weeks | At the end of the training, residents performance will be asses using a hands tracking motion device that measured TPL of both hand in meters |
