Brief Summary: This study assessed the impact of a task-focusing strategy on perceived stress levels and performance during a simulated CPR scenario
Detailed Description: Background Cardiopulmonary resuscitation CPR causes significant stress which may cause deficiencies in attention and increase distractibility This may lead to misjudgements of priorities and delays in CPR performance which may further increase mental stress vicious cycle

Aim This study assessed the impact of a task-focusing strategy on perceived stress levels and performance during a simulated CPR scenario

Methods This is a prospective randomized-controlled trial

Setting Simulator-center of the University Hospital Basel Switzerland

Participants A total of 124 volunteer medical students

Intervention Randomization to receive a 10 minute instruction to cope with stress by loudly posing two task-focusing questions what is the patients condition what immediate action is needed when feeling overwhelmed by stress intervention group or a control group

Outcome measures The primary outcome is the perceived levels of stress and feeling overwhelmed stressoverload secondary outcomes were hands-on time time to start CPR and number of leadership statements
