q2 · i? · review · r2

Scoping review analysis of skills trained across the 35 courses; the review reports 18 courses focused on technical skills, "Only two of the studies included in this scoping review focused on non-technical skills", and eight focused on both types.

"Regarding the skills that the trainees gathered after the trainings, 18 of them (51.4% of the training courses) focused on training technical skills considering the application of correct protocols to attend to trauma patients, as well as specific treatments and techniques for trauma treatments."
