Visual attention during pediatric resuscitation with feedback devices: a randomized simulation study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of feedback devices on visual attention and the quality of pediatric resuscitation.

Methods

This was a randomized cross-over simulation study at the Medical University of Vienna. Participants were students and neonatal providers performing four resuscitation scenarios with the support of feedback devices randomized. The primary outcome was the quality of resuscitation. Secondary outcomes were total dwell time (=total duration of visit time) on areas of interest and the workload of participants.

Results

Forty participants were analyzed. Overall, chest compression (P < 0.001) and ventilation quality were significantly better (P = 0.002) when using a feedback device. Dwell time on the feedback device was 40.1
