Patient simulation effectively trains anesthesia providers on new drugs like remifentanil. This innovative teaching method enhances comfort and confidence in using novel pharmacological agents.

Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Pharmacology
  • Medical Education

Background:

  • The rapid introduction of new pharmacological agents poses challenges for clinical education.
  • Teaching the safe and effective use of new medications is crucial for patient safety.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of patient simulation in teaching the use of remifentanil, a new anesthetic agent.
  • To assess anesthesia providers' perception of simulation as a training tool for novel drugs.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a simulator curriculum demonstrating remifentanil use in various clinical scenarios.
  • Modified a simulator with an infusion pump and pharmacokinetic display for realistic drug effect observation.
  • Conducted training sessions in multiple U.S. cities, guided by instructors for small groups of anesthesiologists and anesthetists.

Main Results:

  • 836 anesthesia providers participated in the remifentanil simulation program across 58 cities.
  • Post-session comfort levels in using remifentanil significantly increased (p < 0.001).
  • 99% of participants rated clinical simulation as "excellent" or "good" for learning about new agents.

Conclusions:

  • Patient simulation is a novel and effective method for introducing new drugs to the medical community.
  • Anesthesia providers perceive simulation as a valuable teaching method for novel pharmacological agents.
