Simulation-based training of critical events during cardiopulmonary bypass: importance of a critical events checklist.

CONCLUSION: Evaluation of critical events during simulated cardiopulmonary bypass shows that the scenario is realistic and relevant for clinical practice. Integrating a critical events checklist improves the probability of correct decision-making and shortens the correct decision time. Temporal workload is increased when using a checklist. Eye tracking and heart rate variability are well suited to evaluate participants' behaviors and stress levels. All participants welcomed simulation training for critical incidents.
