Unifying Resident Education: 12 Interdisciplinary Critical Care Simulation Scenarios

Introduction Unified critical care training within residency education is a necessity. We created a simulation-based curriculum designed to educate residents on core topics and procedural skills, which crossed all adult disciplines caring for critically ill patients. Methods Residents from seven adu...

We created a simulation-based curriculum designed to educate residents on core topics and procedural skills, which crossed all adult disciplines caring for critically ill patients.
