Am I on Camera? Using Video Review in Pediatric Skills Training

Maintaining skills in pediatric prehospital care is critical since pediatric patient encounters can be high acuity/low frequency. Evidence shows that procedural skills competency decays in as little as three months. These researchers used simulations and first-person video to test the effectiveness of procedural skills training for experienced EMS professionals and its impact on skills retention.
