Key result
Effective management of clinical crises requires formal, simulator-based team training and the use of pre-compiled algorithms to mitigate anxiety- and overload-induced performance degradation.
Pre-compiled algorithms and simulator-based team training are recommended to improve the management of sudden, potentially lethal crises in clinical care.

Should not yet change crisis protocols; leaves open the need for prospective validation of simulator training.
W. B. Runciman (2005) conducted a review in Clinical crises in healthcare and anaesthesia. Formal simulator-based team training and pre-compiled algorithms (e.g., COVER ABCD-A SWIFT CHECK) was evaluated. Effective management of clinical crises requires formal, simulator-based team training and the use of pre-compiled algorithms to mitigate anxiety- and overload-induced performance degradation.
