Preparedness for COVID-19: in situ simulation to enhance infection control systems in the intensive care unit	2020-04-10		.txt	text/plain	1621	72	32	5 Within the ICU, potentially aerosol generating procedures such as manual ventilation and tracheal intubation are known to enhance transmission of respiratory viral disease to HCWs, 6 and therefore introducing robust infection control processes as soon as possible is of paramount importance. To examine system and operational issues related to our infection control guidelines, we designed and implemented a high-fidelity in situ clinical simulation to replicate admission, including tracheal intubation, of a patient with suspected or known COVID-19 infection. The main objective of the simulation was to test the ability of the HCW team to effectively implement use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and the practicality of the intubation protocol and preliminary outbreak infection control guidelines.	./cache/cord-305503-j5e6fp61.txt	./txt/cord-305503-j5e6fp61.txt
