Development, initial reliability and validity testing of an observational tool for assessing technical skills of operating room nurses

Feasibility: ICATS-N_ should be reasonably easy to use in real ORs and also in the context of simulation-based .a. The is observational, and thus non-intrusive in its useb. The consists of a relatively small number of itemsc. The tool consists of observable behaviours (i.e., the amount of inference involved from the part of the rater/trainer is minimised) Feasibility was evaluated qualitatively: did the trainer OR nurse of our study find the tool usable?Reliability: ICATS-N_ should capture OR nurses’ technical skills consistently.The tool consists of observable behaviours (i.e., the amount of inference involved from the part of the rater/trainer is minimised) Reliability was evaluated quantitatively in the form of internal consistency (Cronbach a coefficients)Validity: ICATS-N_ should capture what it purports to capture (i.e., OR nurses’ technical skills). Face validity was evaluated qualitatively, via expert opinion in the development of the tool. Content validity was evaluated (i) qualitatively, via expert opinion in the development of the tool and (ii) quantitatively, via correlational analyses of core skills as defined in ICATS-N.

eu Portfolio of Solutions web site has been initially developed in the scope of DRIVER+ project. Today, the service is managed by AIT Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH., for the benefit of the European Management. PoS is endorsed and supported by the Disaster Competence Network Austria (DCNA) as well as by the STAMINA and TeamAware H2020 projects.
