Brief Summary

Sleep deprivation is common in anaesthesiology residents. Its effects on technical skills have been reported with controversial results. Non-technical skills (team working, situation awareness, decision making and task management) contribute to safe and efficient task performance. They have a crucial role in anaesthetic practice, especially during crisis management. The investigators hypothesized that sleep deprivation was associated with a reduced mobilisation of non-technical skills in anaesthesiology residents.
