Introduction: Cardiorespiratory arrest can be reversed with resuscitation measures in less than 20% of cases, if it is attended by a team trained in the pediatric advanced life support course. Despite the massive implementation of this training and technical updates, survival has not improved in the last decade. The learning of non-technical skills is one of the topics to be deepened as a strategy to improve survival.
Objective: To examine the available evidence on the perception of course participants as a training scenario for non-technical skills.
Methods: A literature review was conducted between October 2020 and May 2021. The terms used in non-technical skills were identified, they became MeSH terms. It was conducted an advanced search of the PUBMED and ERIC databases.
Analysis and synthesis of information: 11 articles that describe the perceptions of doctors, pediatricians and nurses about the characteristics of an effective leader, factors that influence coordinated teamwork, the importance of effective communication and having an adequate awareness of the situation in different resuscitation scenarios such as trauma, emergencies and critical care were reviewed; and, the recommendations of the participants on simulation as a learning tool of these skills.
Conclusions: Non-technical skills grouped in the categories of leadership, communication, teamwork and situational awareness, are perceived as a fundamental pillar in the functioning and outcome of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
