Developing medical simulations for opioid overdose response training: A qualitative analysis of narratives from responders to overdoses. PLoS One 2024; 19:e0294626.

Abstract
Medical simulation offers a controlled environment for studying challenging clinical care situations that are difficult to observe directly. Overdose education and naloxone distribution (OEND) programs aim to train potential rescuers in responding to opioid overdoses, but assessing rescuer performance in real-life situations before emergency medical services arrive is exceedingly complex. There is an opportunity to incorporate individuals with firsthand experience in treating out-of-hospital overdoses into the development of simulation scenarios. Realistic overdose simulations could provide OEND programs with valuable tools to effectively teach hands-on skills and support context-sensitive training regimens. In this research, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 individuals experienced in responding to opioid overdoses including emergency department physicians, first responders, OEND program instructors, and peer recovery specialists. Two coders conducted qualitative content analysis using open and axial thematic coding to identify nuances associated with illicit and prescription opioid overdoses. The results are presented as narrative findings complemented by summaries of the frequency of themes across the interviews. Over 20 hours of audio recording were transcribed verbatim and then coded. During the open and axial thematic coding process several primary themes, along with subthemes, were identified, highlighting the distinctions between illicit and prescription opioid overdoses. Distinct contextual details, such as locations, clinical presentations, the environment surrounding the patient, and bystanders' behavior, were used to create four example simulations of out-of-hospital overdoses. The narrative findings in this qualitative study offer context-sensitive information for developing out-of-hospital overdose scenarios applicable to simulation training. These insights can serve as a valuable resource, aiding instructors and researchers in systematically creating evidence-based scenarios for both training and research purposes.

Abstract
Aim of study This study aims to investigate feasibility and quality of a bilingual cardiopulmonary resuscitation training with interprofessional emergency teams from Germany and Poland. Methods As part of a cross-border European Territorial Cooperation (Interreg-VA) funded project a combined communication and simulation training was organised. Teams of German and Polish emergency medicine personnel jointly practised resuscitation. The course was held in both languages with consecutive translation.Quality of chest compression was assessed using a simulator with feedback application. Learning objectives (quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, adherence to guidelines, closed loop communication), and team performance were assessed by an external observer. Coopeŕs Team Emergency Assessment Measure questionnaire was used. Results Twenty-one scenarios with 17 participants were analysed. In all scenarios, defibrillation and medication were delivered with correct dosage and at the right time. Mean fraction of correct hand position was 85.7% ± 25.7 [95%-CI 74.0; 97.4], mean fraction of compression depth 75.1% ± 21.0 [95%-CI 65.6; 84.7], compression rate 117.7 min-1 ± 7.1 [95%-CI 114.4; 120.9], and chest compression fraction 83.3% ± 3.8 [95%-CI 81.6; 85.0].Quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation was rated as "fair" to "good", adherence to guidelines as "good", and closed loop communication as "fair". Bilingual teams demonstrated good situational awareness, but lack of leadership and suboptimal overall team performance. Conclusion Bilingual and interprofessional cross-border resuscitation training in German and Polish tandem teams is feasible. It does not affect quality of technical skills such as high-quality chest compression but does affect performance of non-technical skills (e.g. closed loop communication and leadership).

Abstract
Overdose education and naloxone distribution (OEND) programs are widely accepted to reduce opioid overdose deaths. However, there is currently no validated instrument to evaluate the skills of learners completing these programs. Such an instrument could provide feedback to OEND instructors and allow researchers to compare different educational curricula. The aim of this study was to identify medically appropriate process measures with which to populate a simulation-based evaluation tool. Researchers conducted interviews with 17 content experts, including healthcare providers and OEND instructors from south-central Appalachia, to collect detailed descriptions of the skills taught in OEND programs. Researchers used three cycles of open coding, thematic analysis, and consulted currently available medical guidelines to identify thematic occurrences in qualitative data. There was consensus among content experts that the appropriate nature and sequence of potentially lifesaving actions during an opioid overdose is dependent on clinical presentation. Isolated respiratory depression requires a distinct response compared to opioid-associated cardiac arrest. To accommodate these different clinical presentations, raters populated an evaluation instrument with the detailed descriptions of overdose response skills, such as naloxone administration, rescue breathing, and chest compressions. Detailed descriptions of skills are essential to the development of an accurate and reliable scoring instrument. Furthermore, evaluation instruments, such as the one developed from this study, require a comprehensive validity argument. In future work, the authors will integrate the evaluation instrument in high-fidelity simulations, which are safe and controlled environments to study trainees' application of hands-on skills, and conduct formative assessments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The electronic health record (EHR) is a contributor to serious patient harm occurring within a sociotechnical system. Chemotherapy ordering is a high-risk task due to the complex nature of ordering workflows and potential detrimental effects if wrong chemotherapeutic doses are administered. Many chemotherapy ordering errors cannot be mitigated through systems-based changes due to the limited extent to which individual institutions are able to customize proprietary EHR software. We hypothesized that simulation-based training could improve providers' ability to identify and mitigate common chemotherapy ordering errors. METHODS Pediatric hematology/oncology providers voluntarily participated in simulations using an EHR testing ("Playground") environment. The number of safety risks identified and mitigated by each provider at baseline was recorded. Risks were reviewed one-on-one after initial simulations and at a group "lunch-and-learn" session. At three-month follow-up, repeat simulations assessed for improvements in error identification and mitigation, and providers were surveyed about prevention of real-life safety events. RESULTS The 8 participating providers identified and mitigated an average of 5.5 out of 10 safety risks during the initial simulation, compared 7.4 safety risks at the follow up simulation (p=0.030). Two of the providers (25%) reported preventing at least one real-world patient safety event in the clinical setting as a result of the initial training session. CONCLUSIONS Simulation-based training may reduce providers' susceptibility to chemotherapy ordering safety vulnerabilities within the EHR. This approach may be used when systems-based EHR improvements are not feasible due to limited ability to customize local instances of proprietary EHR software.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Appropriate and timely treatment of status epilepticus (SE) decreases morbidity and mortality. Therefore, skill-based training in the identification and management of SE is crucial for clinicians. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to develop and evaluate the impact of a simulation-based mastery learning (SBML) curriculum to train neurology residents on the identification and management of SE. METHODS We used pretest-posttest design with a retention test on SE skills for this study. Neurology residents in the second postgraduate year (PGY-2) were eligible to participate in the SE SBML curriculum. Learners completed a baseline-simulated SE skills assessment (pretest) using a 26-item dichotomous skills checklist. Next, they participated in a didactic session about the identification and management of SE, followed by deliberate skills practice. Subsequently, participants completed another skills assessment (posttest) using the same 26-item checklist. All participants were required to meet or exceed a minimum passing standard (MPS) determined by a panel of 14 SE experts using the Mastery Angoff standard setting method. After meeting the MPS at posttest, participants were reassessed during an unannounced in situ simulation session on the medical wards. We compared pretest with posttest simulated SE skills performance and posttest with reassessment in situ performance. RESULTS The MPS was set at 88% (23/26) checklist items correct. Sixteen neurology residents participated in the intervention. Participant performance improved from a median of 44.23% (Interquartile range (IQR): 34.62-55.77) at pretest to 94.23% (IQR: 92.13-100) at the posttest after SBML (p < .001). There was no significant difference in scores between the posttest and in situ test up to 8 months later (94.23%; IQR: 92.31-100 vs. 92.31%; IQR: 88.46-96.15; p = .13). CONCLUSIONS Our SBML curriculum significantly improved residents' SE identification and management skills that were largely retained during an unannounced simulated encounter in the hospital setting.

Abstract
The acquisition of competencies in basic life support (BLS) among university students of health sciences requires specific and updated training; therefore, the aim of this review was to identify, evaluate, and synthesise the available scientific knowledge on the effect of training in cardiorespiratory resuscitation in this population. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in MEDLINE, CUIDEN, Web of Science, Wiley Online Library, CINAHL, and Cochrane, including all randomised clinical trials published in the last ten years that evaluated basic life support training methods among these students. We selected a total of 11 randomissed clinical trials that met the inclusion criteria. Participants were nursing and medicine students who received theoretical and practical training in basic life support. The studies showed a great heterogeneity in training methods and evaluators, as did the feedback devices used in the practical evaluations and in the measurement of quality of cardiorespiratory resuscitation. In spite of the variety of information resulting from the training methods in basic life support, we conclude that mannequins with voice-guided feedback proved to be more effective than the other resources analysed for learning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Point-of-care ultrasound is an increasingly common imaging modality that is used in a variety of clinical settings. Understanding how to most effectively teach ultrasound is important to ensure that medical students learn pre-clinical content in a manner that promotes retention and clinical competence. We aim to assess the effectiveness of simulation-based ultrasound education in improving medical student competence in physiology in comparison to a traditional didactic ultrasound curriculum. METHODS Subjects were given a pre and post-test of physiology questions. Subjects were taught various ultrasound techniques via 7 hours of lectures over two days. The control group received 2 additional hours of practice time while the experimental group received 2 hours of case-based simulations. A physiology post-test was administered to all students to complete the two-day course. RESULTS Totally 115 Swiss medical students were enrolled in our study. The mean pre-course ultrasound exam score was 39.5% for the simulation group and 41.6% for the didactic group (P>0.05). The mean pre-course physiology exam score was 54.1% for the simulation group and 59.3% for the didactic group (P>0.05). The simulation group showed statistically significant improvement on the physiology exam, improving from 54.1% to 75.3% (P<0.01). The didactic group also showed statistically significant improvement on the physiology exam, improving from 59.3% to 70.0% (P<0.01). CONCLUSION Our data indicates that both simulation curriculum and standard didactic curriculum can be used to teach ultrasound. Simulation based training showed statistically significant improvement in physiology learning when compared to standard didactic curriculum.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Pediatric out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survival outcomes are dismal (<10%). Care that is provided in adherence to established guidelines has been associated with improved survival. Lower mortality rates have been reported in higher-volume hospitals, teaching hospitals, and trauma centers. The primary objective of this article was to explore the relationship of hospital characteristics, such as annual pediatric patient volume, to adherence to pediatric cardiac arrest guidelines during an in situ simulation. Secondary objectives included comparing adherence to other team, provider, and system factors. METHODS This prospective, multicenter, observational study evaluated interprofessional teams in their native emergency department (ED) resuscitation bays caring for a simulated 5-year-old child presenting in cardiac arrest. The primary outcome, adherence to the American Heart Association pediatric guidelines, was assessed using a 14-item tool including three component domains: basic life support (BLS), pulseless electrical activity (PEA), and ventricular fibrillation (VF). Provider, team, and hospital-level data were collected as independent data. EDs were evaluated in four pediatric volume groups (low < 1,800/year; medium 1,800-4,999; medium-high 5,000-9,999; high > 10,000). Cardiac arrest adherence and domains were evaluated by pediatric patient volume and other team and hospital-level characteristics, and path analyses were performed to evaluate the contribution of patient volume, systems readiness, and teamwork on BLS, PEA, and VF adherence. RESULTS A total of 101 teams from a spectrum of 50 EDs participated including nine low pediatric volume (<1,800/year), 36 medium volume (1,800-4,999/year), 24 medium-high (5,000-9,999/year), and 32 high volume (≥10000/year). The median total adherence score was 57.1 (interquartile range = 50.0-78.6). This was not significantly different across the four volume groups. The highest level of adherence for BLS and PEA domains was noted in the medium-high-volume sites, while no difference was noted for the VF domain. The lowest level of BLS adherence was noted in the lowest-volume EDs. Improved adherence was not directly associated with higher pediatric readiness survey (PRS) score provider experience, simulation teamwork performance, or more providers with Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) training. EDs in teaching hospitals with a trauma center designation that served only children demonstrated higher adherence compared to nonteaching hospitals (64.3 vs 57.1), nontrauma centers (64.3 vs. 57.1), and mixed pediatric and adult departments (67.9 vs. 57.1), respectively. The overall effect sizes for total cardiac adherence score are ED type γ = 0.47 and pediatric volume (low and medium vs. medium-high and high) γ = 0.41. A series of path analyses models was conducted that indicated that overall pediatric ED volume predicted significantly better guideline adherence, but the effect of volume on performance was only mediated by the PRS for the VF domain. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated variable adherence to pediatric cardiac arrest guidelines across a spectrum of EDs. Overall adherence was not associated with ED pediatric volume. Medium-high-volume EDs demonstrated the highest levels of adherence for BLS and PEA. Lower-volume EDs were noted to have lower adherence to BLS guidelines. Improved adherence was not directly associated with higher PRS score provider experience, simulation teamwork performance, or more providers with PALS training. This study demonstrates that current approaches optimizing the care of children in cardiac arrest in the ED (provider training, teamwork training, environmental preparation) are insufficient.

Abstract
Objective The aim of this study was to assess the quality of simulated cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in local pre-hospital care teams and the improvement achieved by using clinical pathways. Methods A prospective observation study. The 2010 American Heart Association Guidelines for CPR, the personnel characteristics of ambulance staff, China's legal system requirements, and the available medical resources were used to design a clinical pathway for pre-hospital care of cardiac arrest. Case simulations were used to evaluate the quality of CPR before and after implementation of the clinical pathway. Results The number of teams which successfully implemented electrocardiogram monitoring, endotracheal intubation and intravenous access before training were 8 (17.8%), 5 (11.1%) and 6 (13.3%) respectively. These increased to 45 (100%), 43 (95.6%) and 43 (95.6%), respectively, after training. The number of teams with successful implementation of artificial ventilation, airway management and insertion of oropharyngeal airway before training were 43 (95.6%), 38 (84.4%) and 12 (26.7%) respectively. These increased to 45 (100%), 42 (93.3%) and 43 (95.6%), respectively, after training. Nine (20%) teams decided CPR onsite before training and 35 (77.8%) after training. The average rate of chest compressions before and after training was 120.3 ± 17.9 and 123.2 ± 17.1 compressions per minute, respectively (p>0.05). Conclusion Training using established clinical pathway significantly improves the quality of CPR and increases the use of ALS techniques. CPR training requires ongoing validation and optimisation to maintain effectiveness. (Hong Kong j.emerg.med. 2015;22:14-22)

Abstract
PURPOSE This study assessed the needs and gaps in the education, practice and competencies of anesthetists in Ethiopia. DESIGN A cross-sectional study design was used. METHODS A questionnaire consisting of 74 tasks was completed by 137 anesthetists who had been practicing for 6 months to 5 years. FINDINGS Over half of the respondents rated 72.9% of the tasks as being highly critical to patient outcomes, and reported that they performed 70.2% of all tasks at a high frequency. More than a quarter of respondents reported that they performed 15 of the tasks at a low frequency. Nine of the tasks rated as being highly critical were not learned during pre-service education by more than one-quarter of study participants, and over 10% of respondents reported that they were unable to perform five of the highly critical tasks. CONCLUSIONS Anesthetists rated themselves as being adequately prepared to perform a majority of the tasks in their scope of practice.

Abstract
Background Simulation-based training (SBT) has become a standard for medical education. However, the efficacy of simulation based training in airway management education remains unclear. Methods The aim of this study was to evaluate all published evidence comparing the effectiveness of SBT for airway management versus non-simulation based training (NSBT) on learner and patient outcomes. Systematic review with meta-analyses were used. Data were derived from PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, Scopus, the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews from inception to May 2016. Published comparative trials that evaluated the effect of SBT on airway management training in compared with NSBT were considered. The effect sizes with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for outcomes measures. Results Seventeen eligible studies were included. SBT was associated with improved behavior performance [standardized mean difference (SMD):0.30, 95% CI: 0.06 to 0.54] in comparison with NSBT. However, the benefits of SBT were not seen in time-skill (SMD:-0.13, 95% CI: −0.82 to 0.52), written examination score (SMD: 0.39, 95% CI: −0.09 to 0.86) and success rate of procedure completion on patients [relative risk (RR): 1.26, 95% CI: 0.96 to 1.66]. Conclusion SBT may be not superior to NSBT on airway management training.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine which of the 21 general pediatrics milestone subcompetencies are most difficult to assess using traditional methodologies and which are best suited to simulation-based assessment. METHODS We surveyed 2 samples: pediatric simulation experts and pediatric program directors. Respondents were asked about current use of simulation for assessment and to select 5 of the 21 pediatric subcompetencies most difficult to assess using traditional methods and the 5 best suited to simulation-based assessment. Spearman rank correlation was used to determine a correlation between how the 2 samples ranked the subcompetencies. RESULTS Forty-eight percent (29 of 60) simulation experts and 20% (115 of 571) program directors completed the survey. Few respondents reported using simulation for summative assessment. There are clear differences across the pediatric subcompetencies in perceived difficulty of assessment and suitability to simulation-based assessment. The 3 most difficult to assess subcompetencies were "recognize ambiguity," "demonstrate emotional insight," and "identify one's own strengths and deficiencies." The subcompetencies most suitable to assessment using simulation were "interprofessional teamwork," "clinical decision making," and "effective communication." Program directors and simulation experts had high agreement for both questions: difficult to assess (rho = 0.76, P < .001) and suitable to simulation-based assessment (rho = 0.94, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Several general pediatrics milestone subcompetencies were identified by pediatric simulation experts and pediatric program directors as difficult to assess using current methodologies and as amenable to simulation-based assessment. The pediatric simulation community should target development of simulation-based assessment tools to these areas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Management of status epilepticus (SE) in the pediatric population is highly time-sensitive. Failure to follow a standard management algorithm may be due to ineffective provider education, and can lead to unfavorable outcomes. OBJECTIVE To design a learning module using high-fidelity simulation technology to teach mastery achievement of a hospital algorithm for managing SE. METHODS Thirty pediatrics interns were enrolled. Using the Angoff method, an expert panel developed the minimal passing score, which defined mastery. Scoring of simulated performance was done by 2 observers. Sessions were digitally recorded. After the pretest, participants were debriefed on the algorithm and required to repeat the simulation. If mastery (minimal passing score) was not achieved, debriefing and the simulation were repeated until mastery was met. Once mastery was met, participants graded their comfort level in managing SE. RESULTS No participants achieved mastery at pretest. After debriefing and deliberate simulator training, all (n=30) achieved mastery of the algorithm: 30% achieved mastery after 1 posttest, 63% after a second, and 6.7% after a third. The Krippendorff α was 0.94, indicating strong interrater agreement. Participants reported more self-efficacy in managing SE, a preference for simulation-based education for learning practice-based algorithms of critical conditions, and highly rated the educational intervention. CONCLUSIONS A simulation-based mastery learning program using deliberate practice dramatically improves pediatrics residents' execution of a SE management protocol. Participants enjoyed and benefited from simulation education. Future applications include improving adherence to other hospital protocols.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Simulation-based skill trainings are common; however, optimal instructional designs that improve outcomes are not well specified. We explored the impact of just-in-time and just-in-place training (JIPT) on interns' infant lumbar puncture (LP) success. METHODS This prospective study enrolled pediatric and emergency medicine interns from 2009 to 2012 at 34 centers. Two distinct instructional design strategies were compared. Cohort A (2009-2010) completed simulation-based training at commencement of internship, receiving individually coached practice on the LP simulator until achieving a predefined mastery performance standard. Cohort B (2010-2012) had the same training plus JIPT sessions immediately before their first clinical LP. Main outcome was LP success, defined as obtaining fluid with first needle insertion and <1000 red blood cells per high-power field. Process measures included use of analgesia, early stylet removal, and overall attempts. RESULTS A total of 436 first infant LPs were analyzed. The LP success rate in cohort A was 35% (13/37), compared with 38% (152/399) in cohort B (95% confidence interval for difference [CI diff], -15% to +18%). Cohort B exhibited greater analgesia use (68% vs 19%; 95% CI diff, 33% to 59%), early stylet removal (69% vs 54%; 95% CI diff, 0% to 32%), and lower mean number of attempts (1.4 ± 0.6 vs 2.1 ± 1.6, P < .01) compared with cohort A. CONCLUSIONS Across multiple institutions, intern success rates with infant LP are poor. Despite improving process measures, adding JIPT to training bundles did not improve success rate. More research is needed on optimal instructional design strategies for infant LP.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the evidence supporting the use of simulation-based assessments as surrogates for patient-related outcomes assessed in the workplace. METHOD The authors systematically searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, and key journals through February 26, 2013. They included original studies that assessed health professionals and trainees using simulation and then linked those scores with patient-related outcomes assessed in the workplace. Two reviewers independently extracted information on participants, tasks, validity evidence, study quality, patient-related and simulation-based outcomes, and magnitude of correlation. All correlations were pooled using random-effects meta-analysis. RESULTS Of 11,628 potentially relevant articles, the 33 included studies enrolled 1,203 participants, including postgraduate physicians (n = 24 studies), practicing physicians (n = 8), medical students (n = 6), dentists (n = 2), and nurses (n = 1). The pooled correlation for provider behaviors was 0.51 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.38 to 0.62; n = 27 studies); for time behaviors, 0.44 (95% CI, 0.15 to 0.66; n = 7); and for patient outcomes, 0.24 (95% CI, -0.02 to 0.47; n = 5). Most reported validity evidence was favorable, though studies often included only correlational evidence. Validity evidence of internal structure (n = 13 studies), content (n = 12), response process (n = 2), and consequences (n = 1) were reported less often. Three tools showed large pooled correlations and favorable (albeit incomplete) validity evidence. CONCLUSIONS Simulation-based assessments often correlate positively with patient-related outcomes. Although these surrogates are imperfect, tools with established validity evidence may replace workplace-based assessments for evaluating select procedural skills.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and timely defibrillation are associated with increasing survival to hospital discharge from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The objective of this study was to demonstrate that performance coaching during an OHCA would improve compression depth and time to defibrillation (TTD). METHODS This study was conducted in a single emergency medical services (EMS) agency and utilized data collected from 815 patients treated between 1/1/2012 and 12/31/2013. The intervention used multiple Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycles to train fire captains to translate performance data into active direction. Testing began in simulation with small-scale expansions prior to system-wide implementation. Performance metrics included average (reported as a percentage) and actual compression depth (reported in millimeters), and TTD (an average in seconds). Analysis was conducted using Xbar and S control charts with standard assessment of special cause for performance data. A statistical shift was seen in means and standard deviations for both depth metrics. RESULTS Average depth of compressions improved from 69.8% (SD=28.0%) to 80.4 (SD=21.8%). Depth of compressions delivered increased from 43.6mm (SD=8.2mm) to 47.2mm (SD=8.1mm). Analysis of the S charts indicates a statistical shift in process variation for TTD. CONCLUSION Early results indicate that utilization of a CPR coach during OHCA improves compression depth and TTD. Further data are needed to assess sustainability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Simulation-based medical education (SBME) is used to teach residents. However, few studies have evaluated its clinical impact. The goal of this study was to evaluate the impact of an SBME session on pediatric interns' clinical procedural success. METHODS This randomized trial was conducted at 10 academic medical centers. Interns were surveyed on infant lumbar puncture (ILP) and child intravenous line placement (CIV) knowledge and watched audiovisual expert modeling of both procedures. Participants were randomized to SBME mastery learning for ILP or CIV and for 6 succeeding months reported clinical performance for both procedures. ILP success was defined as obtaining a sample on the first attempt with <1000 red blood cells per high-power field or fluid described as clear. CIV success was defined as placement of a functioning catheter on the first try. Each group served as the control group for the procedure for which they did not receive the intervention. RESULTS Two-hundred interns participated (104 in the ILP group and 96 in the CIV group). Together, they reported 409 procedures. ILP success rates were 34% (31 of 91) for interns who received ILP mastery learning and 34% (25 of 73) for controls (difference: 0.2% [95% confidence interval: -0.1 to 0.1]). The CIV success rate was 54% (62 of 115) for interns who received CIV mastery learning compared with 50% (58 of 115) for controls (difference: 3% [95% confidence interval: -10 to 17]). CONCLUSIONS Participation in a single SBME mastery learning session was insufficient to affect pediatric interns' subsequent procedural success.
