Rapid Cycle Deliberate Practice (RCDP) Simulation

Unbelievably helpful. The best way to teach and practice a resuscitation algorithm.

RCDP Workshop Evaluation

RCDP is a relatively new simulation modality in which learners rapidly cycle between deliberate practice and directed feedback within the simulation. Unlike theatre simulation where debriefing sessions explore the “how” and “why” of a team’s performance, RCDP focuses on achieving the “what” with the goal of mastery. RCDP provides learners with multiple opportunities to practice the right way, receiving directive feedback to improve performance. This technique is particularly effective for mastering clearly defined algorithms like NRP, ACLS and difficult airway algorithms.
