171 Stress Exposure Simulation. Crossover Ep ”The Emergency Mind”.

In this joint episode with The Emergency Mind podcast, Vic Brazil and Dan Dworkis talk about ‘stress exposure’ simulation/ training, and how we prepare ourselves and our teams to perform under pressure. We started with a general discussion about the need for this kind of training and how others have approached it. There are some fantastic resources on this topic, including this one from First10EM.  

The main conversation was our recent article - Exploring participant experience to optimize the design and delivery of stress exposure simulations in emergency medicine.  

In our conversation we also talked about adaptive expertise, the book ‘Teams that Work’, and Dan’s application of mental rehearsal and principles from martial arts. 

Happy listening!
