Case | Diagnosis | Challenges for teamwork |
1 | Exacerbated COPD | Conflict management, control of emotions due to challenging patient |
2 | Ischaemic stroke of middle cerebral artery | Task management, communication with colleagues Manage aphasic patient |
3 | STEMI and non-sustained ventricular tachycardia | Patient deterioration (cardiac arrhythmia) during care |
4 | Ventricular fibrillation following STEMI | Team leadership, structured ACLS |
5 | Haemodynamically unstable ruptured spleen | Set priorities in evaluation and management, structured ATLS |
6 | Head laceration with ethanol intoxication | Manage agitated patient |
ACLS, advanced cardiac life support; ATLS, advanced trauma life support; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; STEMI, ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
