A novel naloxone training compared with current recommended training in an overdose simulation.
Journal of the American Pharmacists Association : JAPhA 2019 Februrary 9
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine if a novel naloxone training program with a focus on situational stress management yields better results than the currently recommended state training in a simulated overdose response.
METHODS: Students were randomized to receive either the state training or a novel training developed by the Wilkes University Nesbitt School of Pharmacy. After their respective training, each student individually completed a live simulated overdose response with an added stressor of a panicked bystander. A checklist was used to evaluate students during the simulation, and the results were compared.
RESULTS: The average grade for the novel training students was 89% compared with 64% for the state training students (P < 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in time to complete the simulation.
CONCLUSION: Students who underwent the novel training received the state training. The novel training appears to be effective in preparing students to manage a live opioid overdose.
