Pupillometry Use & Professional's Inspection : Leveling Subjectivity

This study aims to assess if there is a significant differences in the accuracy and reliability of pupil evaluations between senior physicians, residents, and nurses when compared to the gold standard of pupillometry, an objective and precise measurement technique.

The study will involve a series of assessments where each participant will evaluate patients' pupils under controlled conditions. The results will be compared against the measurements obtained from pupillometry to determine how closely each group aligns with this standard.

By identifying any discrepancies in pupil assessment skills among the different professional groups, we hope to highlight areas for improvement in training and practice. Ultimately, this research aims to enhance patient care by ensuring that pupil evaluations are performed accurately and consistently across all levels of healthcare providers.

The findings from this study could lead to improved training protocols and potentially influence guidelines for pupil assessment in clinical practice, contributing to better patient outcomes in anesthesia and emergency settings.
