AND CORRECT ANSWER
When one electirc device interrupts the function of another electronic device in the radio
frequency spectrum
Electromagnetic Interference
Feedback from particpant evaluations of a simulation activity are positive except for the ratings
on perceived reality compared to real patients. The operations specialist should first ________
Assess the presentation of the simulation activity with the simulation team - this allows team
to gather more info from multiple sources. THe team will likely have insights to curriculum,
participant experience, and sim activity concepts that would help determine the beset course
of action to improve the activity. Modifying the activity at this point is inappropriate as it
could create more problems without the core problem being identified. Interviewing the
participants is inappropriate because they have already provided feedback
An OS is training a new hire who is sitting in the control room during a scenario in which a sinus
rhythm converts to asystole. Near the end of the scenario, the PT stops vocalizations. The new
hire asks the OS why this happened. What is the best response?
"The PT has gone into cardiac arrest, so vocalizations cease." - When a PT is in asystole, heart
and respiratory function is absent and therefore PT is unconscious

An OS notices that one of the cameras in the sim lab is transmitting an under-exposed image.
Which is the most likely cause?
Light source is behind the subject will result in an under-exposed image. If the light source is
behind the camera, this may result in an over-exposed image
Which of the following would be the best way to prevent equipment failures for new
simulators? Implement an inspection and cleaning schedule - supports early recognition of
problems before they become major issues. Troubleshooting and warranties are solutions
after a problem is identified. Limiting simulator use is unfeasible.
.
The OS is assisting in a research study to determine how many participants maintain sterile
technique during a Foley catheter insertion. What type of research is performed? Quantitative
research - based on numbers. Qualitative research aims to explain a phenomenon or is used
to gain insight. For example, what are the participants attitudes toward breaking sterile
technique
The OS has been asked if there is a simulation activity on file to assess competency of the "five
rights." The OS knows this refers to ______
Medication administration
Scenario objectives are selected based on the ________

Educational goals - Objectives are the tools that guide the learning experience. In order to
develop appropriate scenario objectives, educational goals must be defined. This allows the
participant to achieve the desired outcomes of the simulation experience
What operation philosophy requires the operator to make all changes to the simulator during a
scenario? On the Fly
Which is an RCA coupler?
The OS is working with a simulation educator to complete evaluative scenarios with students
who will soon be graduating from a program of study. At the end of each students' scenario, the
educator provides the student with a review of their actions during a scenario. The OS
recognizes that this is an example of _______
Performance feedback - unidirectional, meaning the educator provides one-on-one
assessment of the learner identifying gaps in their performance based on set standards
without opening a dialogue with the learner
Bi-directional interactive discussion. It is facilitated in a manner that encourages learners to
reflect on activities, discuss areas for improvement, and assimilate knowledge and skills.
Debriefing
An OS has been informed that the older full body simulator is being replaced. A current
preprogrammed scenario can be converted for use with the new simulator's control software. A
new featur not previously available in the older simulator will improve scenario fidelity. The OS
should recommend what?

The scenario on file to be converted, and amended to include the new feature - this takes
advantage of the previously validated scenario while allowing for the new features to be
incorporated
The OS is an embedded standardized participant in the role of a nursing assistang during a
simulation scenario. The OS notices the participants have a fully charged live defibrillator. One
of the participants has their back to the device, is doing chest compressions on the simulator,
and continues to do so after "CLEAR" is called. What should the OS do?
Alert the participant to clear the bed and remind the group that the shock is not simulated -
safety is paramount
What would be the best strategy for maintaining technical and operating manuals for simulation
equipment?
Centralize all materials to one location where they are secure, but available to OS - ensure
conssus, version control, and to minimize the risk of tampering with the content of reference
materials. This also ensures availability of materials.
The sim educator requests a task trainer for an activity involving lumbar puncture on a patient
with a high bilirubin. the OS should prime the task trainer with what color simulated CSF?
Yellow - CSF is normally clear, but yellow with high bilirubin
When selecting a lubricant to use during an intubation simulation scenario, the lubricant must
Meet the manufacturer's specifications for the simulator - incorrect lube may void the
warranty or damage the simulator
