DESCRIPTION (provided by the applicant): Research suggests that training of team coordination skills will be most effective when it incorporates opportunities for interactive practice of those skills in realistic work environments. There is little experimental evidence assessing and comparing the impact of different interactive training approaches with respect to improving the team coordination skills of participants. A multidisciplinary team of researchers at Duke University Medical Center, in collaboration with University of North Carolina Health Care, is developing several simulation approaches toward interactive training of health care team coordination. In addition, Duke University Medical Center and Virtual Heroes, Inc. are developing a 30-interactive networked virtual reality team training tool (3DiTeams). The primary objective of this project is to assess methods of interactive team training in order to design and implement a health care team training program that is (1) cost effective, (2) feasibly implemented in clinical work and professional health care education environments, and (3) has substantial impact on the team coordination skills of trainees. Specific aims include: (1) pilot testing of 3DiTeams as an alternative to traditional interactive team training, (2) experimental comparison of participants' improvement in team knowledge and behaviors following training using 3DiTeams and an alternative interactive team training approach (e.g., high fidelity patient simulation), and (3) evaluation of the resulting experimental data along with realistic cost estimates to design and pilot test an efficient and effective team training program within Duke University Health System. This research has the potential to significantly advance the delivery and distribution of effective team coordination training. Resulting experimental evidence should assist health care organizations in choosing or developing methods of training health care team skills. This research will also provide information needed to support a long term goal of developing health care team training that will be exportable beyond Duke. More importantly, the improvements in health care team training that result from this research are expected to have a broader impact on public health through the reduction of health care adverse events and enhancement of patient safety.

描述（由申请人提供）：研究表明，团队协调技能的培训将是最有效的，当它结合了这些技能在现实的工作环境中的互动实践的机会。很少有实验证据评估和比较不同的互动培训方法对提高参与者的团队协调技能的影响。杜克大学医学中心的一个多学科研究小组与北卡罗来纳州卫生保健大学合作，正在开发几种模拟方法，用于卫生保健团队协调的互动培训。此外，杜克大学医学中心和虚拟英雄公司。正在开发一个30互动网络虚拟现实团队培训工具（3DiTeams）。本项目的主要目的是评估互动式团队培训的方法，以设计和实施一个医疗团队培训计划，该计划（1）具有成本效益，（2）在临床工作和专业医疗教育环境中可行，（3）对受训者的团队协调技能有重大影响。具体目标包括：（1）3DiTeams作为传统交互式团队培训的替代方案的试点测试，（2）使用3DiTeams和替代交互式团队培训方法（例如，高保真病人模拟），以及（3）评估所得到的实验数据沿着现实的成本估计，以设计和试点测试杜克大学卫生系统内的高效和有效的团队培训计划。这项研究有可能显着推进有效的团队协调培训的交付和分配。由此产生的实验证据应有助于医疗机构选择或开发培训医疗团队技能的方法。这项研究还将提供所需的信息，以支持一个长期的目标，发展医疗保健团队的培训，将出口超越杜克。更重要的是，这项研究所带来的医疗团队培训的改善，预计将通过减少医疗不良事件和提高患者安全性，对公共卫生产生更广泛的影响。
