I really liked this article because it focused on crisis resource management in Emergency Medicine. Seven perceived barriers to effective team performance in the ED were listed with the number one barrier being communication between disciplines. Further, of 81 (nurses, physicians, and residents) 100% felt that effective communication and effective leadership were very important team management skills that could effect the outcome of a resuscitation. Additionally, the number one contributing factor to adverse resuscitation outcomes was poor communication (96.2% out of 79 participants). Though other barriers and contributing factors to adverse outcomes were identified, communication was reported as the most contributory. Coming from an emergency room myself, I totally love the aspect of interdisciplinary collaboration. In resuscitation you are working with the physician, the nurses, the techs, pharmacy, the lab, the radiology department--and following a successful resuscitation, you are collaborating with the intensivist/pulmonolgist, cardiologist, and potentially other specialists, as well as the ICU staff members. The patient is relying on effective communication and collaboration to obtain the best outcome possible. And this communication and collaboration is not the sole responsibility of the provider, but EVERYONE on the team!

This article is about a study that sought to describe the process necessary for a successful transition of the student nurse to a professional, as well as what kind of support system enables this progression. It focused more on what was more likely to aid in a student's success. One of the study's implications was the importance of an overall support system with specific concern for appropriate training for those who provide direct clinical education.
