Secondly, the communication delay will be associated with more errors in treatment and a delay of essential treatments in a medical emergency.\n\nBackground The near future will see crewed missions in deep space. As the number of people travelling to space increases, so will the chances of traumatic injury and other medical emergencies. Given many changes to body systems in microgravity and the scarcity of equipment and personnel in space, treating medical emergencies is already very difficult. Because most pain medications interfere with cognition, and general anesthesia would be very risky in these conditions, regional anesthesia ('nerve blocks') has been suggested as a less risky alternative. However, nerve blocks are highly specialized skills and responding to medical emergencies in general requires extensive medical training, it is likely that astronauts will require guidance from earth-based physicians.\n\nAs crews venture deeper into space, the ability of teams to communicate in real time with earth-based medical teams decreases. For missions to the moon, communication delays of 3 to 160 seconds in each direction are expected. In the event of a medical emergency, space crews may require consultation with ground teams. The investigators predict that this communication delay will impact task duration, create opportunities for miscommunication and potentially result in higher rates of complications.\n\nObjectives\n\n* Quantify the difference (communication delay versus no delay) in time to identify critical structures while scanning brachial plexus block sonoanatomy and time to essential treatment during a medical emergency.\n* Quantify the difference (communication delay versus no delay) in quality and ease of imaging while scanning brachial plexus block sonoanatomy.\n* Quantify the difference in completeness of emergency treatment using a composite measure (communication delay versus no delay).\n* Describe the challenges and solutions for team functioning and remote mentorship when a communication delay exists.\n\nMethods This is a within-subjects, mixed-methods, simulation-based randomized study. Regional anesthesia novices (medical students) and Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) medical technicians or CAF nurses will be recruited and given a 4-hour training session on the basics of brachial plexus blocks and their complications. Participants will be placed in teams of 3, participating in two simulation scenarios. Once the team enters the simulation space, they will be able to ask for assistance from a \"remote\" team of experts. Teams will be guided through identifying the sonoanatomy for brachial plexus blocks and responding to a complication from placing a peripheral nerve block. Every team will complete both the no communication delay and 80-second communication delay. Teams will be randomly assigned the order in which they perform each condition.\n\nTime to \"block\" (when the participant identifies where they would place the local anesthetic) and time to essential treatments during an emergency will be recorded. Participants will rate the ease of ultrasound image acquisition and ease of communication, while the expert team will rate the quality of the ultrasound images and the ease of communication. Quantitative outcomes will be analyzed using univariate statistics. After the scenario, teams will debrief the scenario with a focus on communication, safe identification of target nerves and their ability to respond to a complication.

The operation is frequently carried out under regional plexus anesthesia, allowing the patient to remain awake during the procedure. This approach offers the advantage of monitoring for neurological changes during carotid artery clamping, allowing the surgical team to immediately respond by placing a shunt to ensure cerebral perfusion. As a result, performing surgery under regional anesthesia provides therefor a benefit. However, for patients, the procedure, which can last up to two hours or longer in some cases, may pose a significant burden. The fixed position, inability to move, sterile drapes over the face, manipulation by the surgical team, and anxiety about potential complications are just a few of the factors that may distress patients during the operation. Increased sweating and reports of substantial subjective distress are not uncommon if the procedure is performed under local anesthesia.\n\nIn many medical fields, devices and therapies are now being utilized to reduce patient stress in the perioperative setting. In procedures performed under local or regional anesthesia, such as in orthopedics or dentistry, efforts are being made to make operations more tolerable and less stressful for patients. For example, music and video goggles are employed to entertain and distract patients during the intervention. Newer approaches using video googles appear in more and more fields to reduce distress. Especially in vascular surgery and particularly in carotid surgery, the use of audiovisual distraction during the procedure has not been implemented to our knowledge, and its benefits remain undocumented.
