The Department of Defense Medical Research and Development Program (DMRDP) is offering the FY14 Team Performance Training Research Initiative for research in improving team performance in healthcare delivery. The initiative aims to design an efficient and user-friendly team performance trainer with automated assessment technology to reduce medical errors and enhance patient safety. Research should focus on interactive training experiences and develop frameworks, designs, and plans for optimal team performance models. The goal is to enhance communication skills and team performance in healthcare training simulations, leading to improved patient outcomes. Deadline for submissions is April 9, 2015.

| Description: | This is a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for the Fiscal Year 2014 (FY14) Defense Medical Research and Development Program (DMRDP), Joint Program Committee 1 (JPC-1), Medical Simulation and Information Sciences Research Program (MSIS), Team Performance Training (TPT) Research Initiative. The FY14 TPT Research Initiative seeks to support research into the design, plan, and components of an effective, efficient, interactive, user-friendly, evidence-based team performance trainer with automated assessment technology, which will improve team performance in delivery of healthcare with the overall goal of reducing medical errors/adverse events, and improving patient safety and healthcare outcomes. Focus on single-user interactive experiences is encouraged, but the FY14 TPT Research Initiative does not limit research to just single-user interactive experiences. The proposed automated assessment technology should analyze the individuals (and other team members) performance within a team situation/scenario and provide guidance toward optimal behaviors with the overall goal of reducing medical errors and improving healthcare outcomes. The primary goal is to perform critical research to gain knowledge on an optimal, best-practice, evidence-based framework, design, plan, and components to obtain optimal team performance training models, and to document, analyze, and report the knowledge and information regarding the nature and extent of improved communication skills and team performance in healthcare training simulation systems. Research supported by this funding opportunity should provide the fundamental knowledge, potential frameworks, designs and plans, and recommendations (both clinical and technical) to support the future development of an interactive team performance training system that can assess the downstream effects of the individuals, as well as the teams, behaviors and medical decisions have on patient safety outcomes. |
