Abstrakt: Simulation enables learners to practice new skills in a supportive environment. Largely driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, simulation via telepractice, i.e., telesimulation, has emerged. Viable delivery of telesimulation requires consideration of the adaptations needed to conduct simulation via telepractice. The aim of this study was to design and pilot test the feasibility of using telesimulation to provide training in infant feeding management. An iterative process was used across four phases: (1) simulation design, (2) telesimulation adaptations, (3) user testing, feedback, and modifications, and (4) user testing of modified simulation, feedback, and final modifications. During Phases 1 and 2, team members worked together to design and test telepractice adaptations for a simulation experience. During Phases 3 and 4, the telesimulation was pilot tested with a group of speech pathologists, with feedback sought via open-ended survey questions and/or an optional focus group. Manifest content analysis was used to interpret user feedback. In Phase 2, several adaptations were explored to optimize telesimulation delivery and engagement, including Zoom® functions (e.g., 'spotlighting,' digital backgrounds) and supplementary video/auditory files. There were 11 participants across Phases 3 and 4. Specific feedback centered around simulation preparation and structure, session practicalities, supports for realism, Zoom® functions, group dynamics, participants' experiences, and future enhancements. An overall list of recommendations for telesimulation was generated. Telesimulation for feeding management was considered feasible and participant feedback was favorable. Further research is required to investigate if the learner outcomes of telesimulation are comparable to in-person simulation for infant feeding management.
