Abstract
ObjectivesThe 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. MethodsStudents 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. ResultsThe 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. ConclusionStudents 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.
