Developing a Deliberate Practice Intervention to Recalibrate Physician Heuristics in Trauma Triage
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Deliberate practice for Trauma Injury. Completed, enrolled 72 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The objective of this study is to test the feasibility of using deliberate practice - goal-oriented training in the presence of a coach who can provide personalized, immediate feedback - to increase engagement. The research design involves recruitment of a national convenience sample of board-certified emergency physicians who will serve as trainees (n=30), pairing of the trainees with a coach, delivery of three 30-minute coaching sessions using the existing games as the training task, and assessment of the effect of the combined intervention on performance in the laboratory. The specific aims are: 1. To assess the fidelity of intervention delivery by measuring coaching skill acquisition, coaching skill drift and protocol adherence. 2. To assess the potential effect size of the intervention by comparing trainee performance on a validated virtual simulation with a control group of physicians (n=30). 3. To assess the acceptability of the intervention by using a mixture of validated instruments and semi-structured debriefing interviews with trainees to assess their engagement with the intervention.
