Gamification, listed by the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) as a learning process in its 2021 guidelines, is a new digital innovation tool that brings added value towards motivation that seems to reuse time in a creative way. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the game "Save the shame!" on advanced life support (ALS) knowledge of nurses and physicians in intensive care medicine settings. This is a cross-sectional study following a mixed methodology. In its preliminary phase it follows a qualitative and exploratory methodology, with application of the E-Delphi technique for creation and validation of the "Save the shame! game and validation of the ALS knowledge test. The study subsequently follows the experimental methodology. The investigators expect to confirm the hypothesis that the game "Save the Shame!" has a positive impact on the skills training of health professionals in intensive care medicine settings in a Portuguese hospital center.
