  • Titulo Artículo: The ABCs of DKA: Development and Validation of a Computer-Based Simulator and Scoring System
  • Resumen: Background Clinical management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) continues to be suboptimal; simulation-based training may bridge this gap and is particularly applicable to teaching DKA management skills given it enables learning of basic knowledge, as well as clinical reasoning and patient management skills. Objectives 1) To develop, test, and refine a computer-based simulator of DKA management; 2) to collect validity evidence, according to National Standard’s validity framework; and 3) to judge whether the simulator scoring system is an appropriate measure of DKA management skills of undergraduate and postgraduate medical trainees. Design After developing the DKA simulator, we completed usability testing to optimize its functionality. We then conducted a preliminary validation of the scoring system for measuring trainees’ DKA management skills.
