Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? Participants agreed that disclosure that the manikin would or may die was not required in the prebrief or predefined learning objectives. → Apara Teleireoluwa 2024

Qualitative participant data from the included studies. The review contrasts this with Truog and Meyer's adult-simulation proposal of extensive prebriefing discussion of possible death, noting realism concerns.
"Conversely, participants agreed that a disclosure that the manikin would, or may, die in the scenario was not required in the prebrief or in the predefined learning objectives."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Safety — outcome: instruction changes it
Related Claims¶
- Participants perceive manikin death as reflecting inadequate resuscitation, but facilitator reassurance and debriefing resolve this — related
- Healthcare professionals report that paediatric manikin death increases the realism of simulation scenarios — related
- Paediatric manikin death does not impair resuscitation performance measured against the NRP algorithm — related
- Participation in neonatal simulation raises salivary cortisol, but the rise is not dependent on whether the manikin dies — related
- High-tech VAD equipment made some participants feel under observation and stressed, and viewing recorded mistakes before teammates was seen as critical in both VAD forms, a potential threat to psychological safety — related
