“…medicine is a team sport, with two
exceptions: people’s lives depend on it and
there are no coaches.”
-Atul Gawande, MD
In sports, when the team loses, the whole team
loses, but in medicine, only the patient loses.

individual studies
Eliminates problems of using different
measures, samples, etc.
Uncovers ‘true’ relationship

Reported as:


Results



Overall, team training was shown to have a
moderate, positive effect on team functioning
(ρ = .34)
Moderator analysis investigating effect of team
training on distinct outcomes
Four outcomes investigated:




Cognitive outcomes (ρ = .42)
Affective outcomes (ρ = .35)
Process outcomes (ρ = .44)
Performance outcomes (ρ = .39)
35
What do these results mean?



Team training does work!
Training content, team membership stability
and team size impact the effectiveness of team
training interventions.
Team training can explain 12%-19% of the
variance of a team’s performance which
means:




Reducing medical errors
Saving lives
Saving aircrafts
Increasing the bottom line
36
The Quantitative Literature
TTMA

(Salas, Nichols, & Driskell, 2007)
Investigated relative contributions of three
different team training strategies

Cross-training (CT)



Team coordination and adaptation training (TCT)


Team members rotate positions during training
Develops shared understanding of KSAs and
responsibilities of team members
Teaches how to alter coordination strategy and to
reduce the amount of communication necessary for
successful task performance
Guided team self-correction training (GSC)

Use facilitated debriefs to learn how to diagnose the
team’s problems and to develop effective solutions 37
The Quantitative Literature

58
Some Principles to Optimize SBT for
Healthcare:
Beyond the bells and whistles
59
Clear & Precise Learning Outcomes
Tips:




Develop learning outcomes; serve as guide
Training teamwork competencies, not tasks
Define teamwork requirements
Conduct a cognitive task analysis; uncover
aspects of the job
60
Carefully Crafted Scenarios
Tips:



Create opportunities to demonstrate
competencies (“triggers”)
Embed metrics (and instructional features)
Link “triggers” to competencies and learning
outcomes
61
Diagnostic Measures
Tips:




Ensure metrics are diagnostic of clinical
performance for AAR
Reinforce desired clinical behaviors
Focus on process measures
Design event-based measurement protocols
62
Robust Observation Protocols
Tips:



Train the observers
Focus on both the individual and team level
Focus on 4-5 key performance dimensions
63
Feedback
Tips:




Make it timely
Provide diagnostic and developmental feedback
Focus on both: Individual and team level
feedback
Create discipline to debriefing
64
An Organized Pedagogical System
Tips:

Provide Information…


Demonstrate Behaviors…


Trainees learn ‘rough approximation’ of teamwork behaviors
through observational learning
Create Practice Opportunities…


Trainees build declarative knowledge of the KSAs involved in
teamwork
Trainees learn by doing…good performance is reinforced, poor
performance is corrected
Provide Feedback and remediation…

Trainees refine teamwork competencies (deficiencies in KSAs
are identified and addressed with corrective feedback and
additional targeted training)
65
Think About What Happens Before, During,
and After SBT
Tips:





Sound positive messages about SBT & safety
Make sure you involve top-level support
Make sure key players are on board
Prepare organizational climate
Create opportunities to practice (after SBT)
66
Continued…
Tips:





Show management support (after SBT)
Ensure trainee motivation
Promote self-efficiency
Reinforce desired behaviors (after SBT)
Provide incentives
67
Team training can only be successful if…
1. The design and delivery is scientifically
rooted
2. The focus is on team-based competition
3. Physicians take ownership
4. Teamwork is rewarded and reinforced by
both providers and administration
5. Practice opportunities are
embedded…simulation!
6. Mechanics to maintain shared mental
models are in place…briefs/debriefs
