Communication delays and anesthesia in emergencies
This study tests how communication delays affect anesthesia responses during medical emergencies and ultrasound-guided procedures. It may help identify ways to improve teamwork and safety in critical situations.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a medical student at Dalhousie University or a Canadian Armed Forces medical technician or nurse with at least the rank of Private.
- You have no prior experience or training in regional anesthesia techniques.
- You do not have visual or hearing impairments that would make participating in a regular video chat difficult.

This study tests a “near-remote” teaching/coaching approach to help clinicians perform regional anesthesia blocks safely and effectively. You might be able to take part if you’re an adult patient who needs a surgery or injury treatment where a regional block could be used, and you can consent in English.
This trial compares a video call with a face-to-face meeting for your pre-surgery anesthesia check. The goal is to see if the video option works just as well, which could save you a trip to the hospital.
This study tests whether paramedics and emergency doctors can use a special video or phone link to improve care for children in emergencies. It compares the usual way doctors give advice to paramedics with a new telemedicine method.
This study tests whether the location of anesthesia equipment affects how well anesthesiologists perform during a simulated emergency. If you are an anesthesiology trainee or staff, you may be able to help improve patient safety.
This study tests whether using virtual reality (VR) helps medical students learn anesthesia skills better than standard training. If you're a third-year medical student about to start your anesthesia rotation, you might be able to join and help improve how future doctors train.
This study tests whether a video call with your anesthesia team before birth is as good as an in-person visit. If you are healthy and having your first baby, you may be able to do your pre-birth checkup from home.
