About this study

The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation between the resilience of anesthesia professionals and the stress measured during a simulation session.

Read the detailed description

This trial will be carried out at the simulation center of the training institute for health professionals of the CHU Grenoble Alpes. Volunteer anesthesia professionals and students will perform a scenario simulating a pediatric laryngospasm during a surgical incision.

Each scenario will be performed by a medical and paramedical anesthesia pair and supervised by simulation trainers.

Stress and resilience measures will be taken at various times during the study. Participants will be debriefed at the end of the simulation.

The primary objective is to analyze the correlation between anesthesia professionals' resilience and measured stress.Secondary objectives are to study the association between: SDNN-measured stress and VAS-reported stress, age and SDNN-measured stress, CD RISC 10 resilience and PSS10-reported stress, CD RISC resilience and VAS-reported stress, the effect of experience on SDNN-measured stress, multiple correlation of the different secondary criteria.

    SDNN measurement during pediatric simulation

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Heart rate variability

    Standard deviation of the average of RR intervals (SDNN in milliseconds) in participants

    Measured: during the laryngospasm (during 3 minutes at 6 minutes)

  2. Resilience

    Measurement of resilience by Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale 10 (CD RISC 10 from 0 to 40) in participants. A high score indicates better resilience.

    Measured: 5 days before scenario

Secondary outcomes (16)
  1. Self-reported stress

    Stress level self reported by participants on visual analogical scale (VAS from 0 to 100); One end of the scale represents the maximum conceivable symptom strength (i. e., 100%), the other end no symptoms whatsoever (i. e., 0%).

    Measured: 5 days before scenario

  2. Self-reported stress

    Stress level self reported by participants on visual analogical scale (VAS from 0 to 100); One end of the scale represents the maximum conceivable symptom strength (i. e., 100%), the other end no symptoms whatsoever (i. e., 0%).

    Measured: just Before the scenario (at 0 minute )

  3. Self-reported stress

    Stress level self reported by participants on visual analogical scale (VAS from 0 to 100); One end of the scale represents the maximum conceivable symptom strength (i. e., 100%), the other end no symptoms whatsoever (i. e., 0%).

    Measured: just after briefing (at 3 minutes)

  4. Self-reported stress

    Stress level self reported by participants on visual analogical scale (VAS from 0 to 100); One end of the scale represents the maximum conceivable symptom strength (i. e., 100%), the other end no symptoms whatsoever (i. e., 0%).

    Measured: just after the end of scenario (at 9 minutes)

  5. Self-reported stress

    Stress level self reported by participants on visual analogical scale (VAS from 0 to 100); One end of the scale represents the maximum conceivable symptom strength (i. e., 100%), the other end no symptoms whatsoever (i. e., 0%).

    Measured: just after the debriefing (at 30 minutes)

  6. Perceived Stress Scale

    The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS10 from 10 To 50) measures the degree to which respondents feel their lives are unpredictable, uncontrollable, and overloaded. A high score indicates more stress.

    Measured: 5 days before scenario

  7. Age of anesthesia professionals

    Age of anesthesia professionals: (quantitative variable)

    Measured: 5 days before scenario

  8. Experience in anesthesia:

    Experience in anesthesia: number of years since the beginning of specialized training training (quantitative variable)

    Measured: 5 days before scenario

  9. Pediatric experience:

    Pediatric experience: qualitative variable (yes, no)

    Measured: 5 days before scenario

  10. Pediatric laryngospasm experience

    Pediatric laryngospasm experience: qualitative variable: (yes, no)

    Measured: 5 days before scenario

  11. Heart rate variability

    Standard deviation of the average of RR intervals (SDNN in milliseconds) in participants

    Measured: 5 days before scenario (during 3 minutes)

  12. Heart rate variability

    Standard deviation of the average of RR intervals (SDNN in milliseconds) in participants

    Measured: Before the scenario (during 3 minutes)

  13. Heart rate variability

    Standard deviation of the average of RR intervals (SDNN in milliseconds) in participants

    Measured: during briefing (during 3 minutes at 0 minutes)

  14. Heart rate variability

    Standard deviation of the average of RR intervals (SDNN in milliseconds) in participants

    Measured: during the scenario before the laryngospasm (during 3 minutes at 3 minutes)

  15. Heart rate variability

    Standard deviation of the average of RR intervals (SDNN in milliseconds) in participants

    Measured: during the debriefing (3 minutes at 9 minutes)

  16. Heart rate variability

    Standard deviation of the average of RR intervals (SDNN in milliseconds) in participants

    Measured: after the debriefing (3 minutes at 30 minutes)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stress, Professional and Resilience, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Heart rate variability (time frame: during the laryngospasm (during 3 minutes at 6 minutes)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Mar 2022.
