Summary

This multicenter randomized trial will employ in-situ cardiac arrest simulations ("mock codes") to test whether using telemedicine technology to add an intensive care physician as the "copilot" for cardiac arrest resuscitation teams influences chest compression quality, resuscitation protocol adherence, team function, and provider experience.

Conditions

  • Cardiac Arrest

Interventions

OTHER

Tele-intensivist consultation

Standardized consultation to on-site cardiac arrest team by off-site intensivist via two-way audiovisual link using a mobile telemedicine cart

OTHER

Simulated "observation" by ICU physician

Display of silent, pre-recorded, non-interactive videotape of an ICU physician. The on-site cardiac arrest team will be told that an intensive care physician is observing the mock code.
