Aim:
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of structured team training on teamwork, communication and resuscitation performance among undergraduate nursing students in simulated cardiac arrest scenarios.
Design:
A nonrandomized pretest-posttest intervention study with a control group.
Methods:
Sixty-seven third-year nursing students from two accredited nursing programmes were assigned to either an intervention group (n = 34), which received advanced life support training integrated with five structured team training sessions based on the TeamSTEPPS framework, or a control group (n = 33), which received life support training alone. Teamwork and communication were measured before and after training using validated tools. Resuscitation performance was assessed posttraining through standardized simulation scenarios rated by trained evaluators.
Results:
The intervention group demonstrated significant improvements in teamwork and communication scores compared to the control group. Posttraining resuscitation performance was also higher in the intervention group. These findings indicate that the integration of structured team training enhances both technical and nontechnical competencies in high-pressure clinical situations.
Conclusion:
Structured team training is an effective educational strategy to improve communication, collaboration and resuscitation performance among nursing students.
