Summary
This study developed and validated the Teamwork Scale in Resuscitation (TSR) to measure teamwork skills during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The TSR is a reliable and valid tool for assessing teamwork in simulated resuscitation environments.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Emergency Medicine
- Healthcare Simulation
Background:
- Teamwork is a critical non-technical skill in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
- Existing tools for measuring resuscitation teamwork are limited.
- This study aimed to develop and validate the Teamwork Scale in Resuscitation (TSR).
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop a psychometrically sound instrument for assessing teamwork in resuscitation.
- To evaluate the validity and reliability of the Teamwork Scale in Resuscitation (TSR).
Main Methods:
- A sequential exploratory mixed-method design was employed.
- Qualitative phase: Semi-structured interviews with resuscitation team members to develop an initial item pool.
- Quantitative phase: Assessment of face, content, construct validity, and reliability (internal consistency, stability).
Main Results:
- The final Teamwork Scale in Resuscitation (TSR) comprises 44 items across three categories: prerequisites, leadership, and teamwork.
- The scale utilizes a 5-point Likert scale.
- Convergent validity, concurrent validity, and reliability (Cronbach's alpha, ICC) were confirmed.
Conclusions:
- The Teamwork Scale in Resuscitation (TSR) is a valid and reliable tool for measuring teamwork in simulated resuscitation.
- Further research is recommended in diverse resuscitation contexts and with trained raters for real-world application.

Self-report inventories are objective personality assessments that use multiple-choice items or numbered scales, typically ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). They are often called Likert scales after Rensis Likert. These inventories are widely used due to their ease of administration and cost-effectiveness. One of the most prominent examples is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), initially developed in the 1940s to assess abnormal personality traits.

The respiratory system's basic structures and primary functions lay the foundation for nurses' comprehensive respiratory assessments. This assessment includes subjective and objective data to gauge the patient's respiratory health.
Subjective Assessment: Nurses interview the patient to gather information directly during the subjective assessment. It includes questions about the individual's medical history, medications, and symptoms, focusing on past respiratory conditions like...

A thorough assessment of respiratory health is paramount in clinical settings to identify and manage respiratory distress and ensure adequate oxygenation. This article elaborates on the critical aspects of respiratory evaluation, including airway assessment, skin color examination, and the observation of accessory muscle use, which are integral to effectively diagnosing and managing patients with respiratory conditions.

According to obedience research, we may harm others under the forceful pressures of an authority figure (Milgram, 1974). How about if the inappropriate orders were delivered with less force? The increasing interdependence between nurses and physicians compelled Hofling and his colleagues to explore nurses’ reactions to a potentially harmful medical request made by the perceived authority figure, the doctor (Hofling, Brotzman, Dalrymple, Graves, & Pierce, 1966). In this situation,...

Respiratory assessment is a cornerstone of nursing assessments, crucial for the early detection of patient deterioration. This evaluation transcends routine procedures, representing a critical skill nurses must master to ensure optimal patient care.
Objectives and Importance:
The primary goal of respiratory assessment is to evaluate patients at early risk of clinical deterioration. Since respiratory distress often precedes other signs of declining health, breathing patterns and sounds become a...

Respiratory Depth
Respiratory depth measures the volume of air inhaled or exhaled during a breath. It can vary from shallow to deep and typically remains consistent when a person is at rest or asleep. Occasionally, individuals will automatically inhale deeply, known as sighing, which inflates the lungs with more air than normal breathing.
To assess respiratory depth, observe the degree of chest excursion or movement:
