3. 1.Define or describe “Confidence” as related to resuscitation performance 2.What are the predictors or independent variables that effect nurse confidence in assisting in a real code blue situation 3.Describe the effects of simulation on the total group self confidence 4.Compare group mean differences in confidence measures based on education level, area of practice, years of experiences, and recent BLS or ACLS training. 5.Describe how human patient simulation for mock code protocols could be utilized as an evidenced- based teaching modality

4. Nurse Is often the first responder in a Cardiopulmonary arrest. New Nurses need confidence and competence to assist the team. – “Most nurses do not feel comfortable in codes” (Stryzewski, 2006). At MMH in 2006, MMH had 176 Code blues (40% in MS, 50% ICU) 2009, MMH had 199 code blues (57% ICU) Mock Codes are being practiced in the Bio-skills Lab. It is unclear if simulation training is effective.

5. To resemble reality “To replicate some or nearly all of a clinical situation so that the situation may be more readily understood and managed when it occurs for real in clinical practice”. “High fidelity simulators are extremely realistic and sophisticated and high level of interactivity.”

6. Study explored self-reported confidence Self confidence is faith in one’s own abilities (Wikipedia.org). Confidence built upon belief and evidence (www.novations.com).www.novations.com VAS (Visual Analog Scale) 1-5 Confidence Scale (Grundy, 1993)

7. Confidence Scale Rating (1-5) on 5 subscales 1.I am certain that my performance is correct 2.I feel that I perform the task without hesitation 3.My performance would convince the observer(s) that I’m competent 4.I feel sure of myself as I perform the task 5.I feel satisfied with my performance

8. Introduction – Equipment – Limitations – Assignment of roles Scenario – History of Patient – Participant action Debriefing
