Role Delineation of the Code Blue Team: A Quasi-Experimental Study During COVID-19.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to assess if implementing a code role delineation intervention in an emergency department would improve the times to defibrillation and medication administration and improve the nurse perception of teamwork.

Methods: A quantitative quasi-experimental study used a retrospective chart review to gather data. A pre- and post-test measured nurse perception of teamwork in a code using the Mayo High Performance Teamwork Scale (MHPTS) after a code role delineation intervention using a paired samples t-test.
