Stress and resident interdisciplinary team performance: Results of a pilot trauma simulation program

Excessive stress negatively impacts surgical residents ’ technical performance. The effect of stress on trainee nontechnical skills, however, is less well studied. Given that nontechnical skills are known to impact clinical performance, the purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between residents’ perceived stress and nontechnical skil ls during multidisciplinary trauma simulations.
