| Abstract |
Critical illness is a time-sensitive process which requires practitioners to process vast quantities of data and make decisions rapidly. We have developed a tool, the Checklist for Early Recognition and Treatment of Acute Illness (CERTAIN), aimed at enhancing care delivery in such situations. To determine the efficacy of CERTAIN and similar cognitive aids, we developed rubric for evaluating provider performance in a simulated medical resuscitation environments. We recruited 18 clinicians with current valid ACLS certification for evaluation in three simulated medical scenarios designed to mimic typical medical decompensation events routinely experienced in clinical care. Subjects were stratified as experienced or novice based on prior critical care training. A checklist of critical actions was designed using face validity for each scenario to evaluate task completion and performance. Simulation sessions were video recorded and scored by two independent raters. Construct validity was assessed under the assumption that experienced clinicians should perform better than novice clinicians on each task. Reliability was assessed as percentage agreement, kappa statistics and Bland-Altman plots as appropriate. Eleven experts and seven novices completed evaluation. The overall agreement on common checklist item completion was 84.8 %. The overall model achieved face validity and was consistent with our construct, with experienced clinicians trending towards better performance compared to novices for accuracy and speed of task completion. A standardized video assessment tool has potential to provide a valid and reliable method to assess 12 performances of clinicians facing simulated medical emergencies. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 20 January 2016.
All research outputs
#15,354,849
of 22,840,638 outputs
Outputs from BMC Emergency Medicine
#475
of 748 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#232,247
of 395,862 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Emergency Medicine
#25
of 32 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,840,638 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 748 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.0. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 395,862 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 32 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
