Pediatric crisis resource management training improves emergency medicine trainees' perceived ability to manage emergencies and ability to identify teamwork errors.

Bank I, Snell L, Bhanji F. Pediatr Emerg Care. 2014;30:879-883.

Emergency medicine residents receive variable exposure to pediatric resuscitation situations during their training, highlighting the need for effective simulation–based education. In this study, a crew resource management–based teamwork training workshop increased emergency medicine residents' knowledge of teamwork concepts and enhanced their ability to detect errors.
