Summary
This pilot study is a prospective, single-center, randomized, controlled trial in a tertiary pediatric emergency department with two parallel groups of voluntary post-graduate year 1 to 5 pediatric residents and registered pediatric emergency nurses. The impact of an mHealth support tool will be compared to conventional methods on the retrieval of laboratory data from the patient's electronic record, and on team collaboration in a semi-simulated emergency department environment. Ten participants are randomized (1:1). The primary endpoint is the time from the availability of new laboratory results for a given patient to their consideration by participants, measured in minutes using a stopwatch.
