Who is the real team leader? Comparing leadership performance of the team leader and CPR Coach during simulated cardiac arrest.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To describe the leadership performance of team leaders and CPR Coaches, and to determine if there is a correlation between leadership scores and CPR performance during management of simulated pediatric cardiac arrest events.

Methods
