Augmented Reality (AR) Hong Kong

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This is an international, collaborative study evaluating the non-technical skills (NTS) of anesthesiology residents. The goal is to explore the capability of performing a remote, international AR simulation for the purpose of assessing PALS during a medical crisis. Simulation experts in the United States will facilitate the AR simulations with anesthesiology residents in Hong Kong. The medical simulation itself is grounded in traditional best practices in accordance with the American Heart Association.

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Individual performance of non-technical skills assessed by Anaesthetist Non-Technical Skills (ANTS) | The Anaesthetist Non-Technical Skills (ANTS) scoring system uses four categories assessing task management, teamworking, situation awareness and decision-making (1 to 4 points by categories). The minimum score is 4 and the maximum 16 | immediately after simulation | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Individual performance of non-technical skills assessed by Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scale (BARS) | The BARS scoring system uses four categories assessing situation awareness, decision-making, communication and teamwork. The score ranges from 1 and 9 (1 = poor and 9 = excellent) | immediately after simulation | 
| System Usability Scale (SUS) Score | The scale has 10 items. Scores ranges from 1-5 (1 = strongly disagree and 5 = strongly agree) | immediately after simulation | 
| The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Ergonomic scale | The scale has 6 items. Scores ranges from 1-5 (1 = strongly disagree and 5 = strongly agree) | immediately after simulation |
