🔷 Overview

The quality of transmissions in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) plays an essential role in patient care and requires the attention of several actors: RN, CRNA and anesthesiologist. This training, therefore, allows us to review best practices for reliable transmission.

‍

🔷 Description

Pre-requisites:

• Be a healthcare system professional

Duration:

• 1 hour 15 minutes independently
• 1 hour in a group (videoconference debriefing)

HAS certification criteria:‍

• Criterion 3.2-04: The hospital trains its professionals in risk management using healthcare simulation tools.

‍

🔷 Strengths

• This course focuses on three key concepts:
  
  • The importance of conducting quality handovers;
  • prevention of medication errors;
  • and the management of task interruptions.
• Practical exercise to practice communicating precisely.
• Detailed transmission model for download.
• Mixed format, combining video immersion, individual reflection and collective debriefing.

🔷 Program

PART 1: autonomous, asynchronous

• ‍Introduction totraining

• Pre-test (positioning test)‍

• ‍‍Video simulation‍
  
  • Immersive video-simulation taking place exclusively in the post-interventional surveillance room, from the transfer of a patient from the operating room to the SSPI, through to the completion of transmissions between the anesthesia team and the SSPI.
  • Filmed interview: synthesis and analysis of the situation.

• Summary of key points to remember
  
  • Identify the key points to ensure reliable handovers.
  • Understand the impact of handovers on the quality of care: a concrete example between checklists and post-anesthesia hypoxemia.
  • Use a checklist for successful transmissions (downloadable template).
  • Practical application: communicating with precision.

• ‍Post-test (measuring progress and validating skills) & Action plan

• ‍Training assessment

‍

PART 2: collective, videoconference debriefing

• ‍Video-simulation debriefing with a human factors expert
  
  • Identify discrepancies between professional practice and best practices to improve the reliability of handovers.
  • Identify individual and team areas for improvement.
  • Establish an individual and collective action plan to strengthen teamwork.
