Brief Summary:
Breaking bad news especially a death notice is an essential part of the medical profes-sional communication Being inadequately trained in those skills this may result in un-pleasant psychosocial consequences for everyone involved
This prospective single-center randomized controlled trial evaluated the delivery of a death notice to simulation parents out of the perspective of these parents professional actors the participants students and by video analysis The simulation patient has prior unexpectedly died during a simulated resuscitation The intervention group broke the bad news after receiving a short communication

Detailed Description:
Conversations about death and dying present discomfort for both healthcare professionals patients and their families These conversations emotionally laden pose lasting challenges and impact decision-making Despite extensive medical training physicians often lack adequate communication skills for such conversations leading to frustration and distress Delivering bad news particularly in pediatrics requires managing not only medical intricacies but also emotional impact Communication skills crucial for such scenarios are typically developed over time through observation and practice yet are often inadequately emphasized in medical training Our study aimed to assess the impact of communication training on medical students delivering death notifications to simulation parents in pediatric simulation scenarios
