Playing it safe: simulated team training in the OR
1School of Nursing, University of Texas at Arlington, TX, USA.
Abstract:
Health care professionals are expected to make prompt, accurate decisions in life-threatening emergency situations in the OR. Perioperative leaders are faced with the challenge of ensuring that OR team members are prepared to respond to potentially lethal emergencies, including rare and infrequent events. This article describes the importance of team training for all members of the OR team. The use of simulation is discussed as a tool to accomplish this goal. Steps for developing a simulation scenario are presented.

Exercise Stress Test
Exercise stress testing, commonly known as a treadmill test, is a noninvasive procedure used to evaluate cardiovascular function and diagnose heart conditions.
Definition
An exercise stress test measures the heart's response to exertion using a treadmill or stationary bicycle. Chest electrodes record the heart's electrical activity through an ECG, and blood pressure is monitored regularly.
Purposes
Modeling in Therapy
Participant Modeling
