Percepción de la simulación en obstetricia y ginecología en el pregrado y posgrado de una universidad privada chilena / Perception of simulation in obstetrics and gynecology at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels of a private Chilean university

INTRODUCCIÓN: La simulación es una herramienta que promueve la confianza y desarrollo de habilidades en los participantes. En la evaluación de programas formativos la percepción de utilidad se vincula a la confianza y aprendizaje, y corresponde al primer nivel de evaluación según Kirkpatrick. OBJETIVO: Evaluar la percepción de internos y residentes de obstetricia y ginecología en escenarios de simulación. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Investigación descriptiva cuantitativa, en una muestra a conveniencia de internos y residentes, quienes contestaron una escala de valoración global y de preferencias sobre sus simulaciones. RESULTADOS: Se obtuvieron 63 respuestas de internos (63%) y 7 de residentes (78%). La valoración promedio de las simulaciones fue de 6,42 en los internos y de 6,64 de los residentes. El 67% de los internos y el 86% de los residentes no eliminaría ninguna simulación. Los internos repetirían todas las simulaciones, en tanto que los residentes repetirían tres simulaciones de un total de 11. CONCLUSIONES: La valoración de las simulaciones fue alta en ambos grupos, difiriendo en las actividades que prefieren repetir, lo cual puede relacionarse con las competencias inherentes al rol de especialista en comparación al rol del médico general o a las diferencias en autoconfianza de internos y residentes.

INTRODUCTION: Clinical simulation is a training tool that promotes confidence and the development of procedural skills in participants, from initial training to the training of professional teams. In the evaluation of training programs, the measurement of perceived usefulness is linked to confidence and learning and corresponds to a first level of evaluation of the quality of training according to Kirkpatricks model. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the perception of medical interns and Obstetrics and Gynecology fellows regarding simulation scenarios. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Quantitative descriptive research, in a convenience sample of interns and fellows, who answered a scale of global assessment and preferences about simulations. RESULTS: The average score was 6.42 for the interns and 6.64 for the scholarship recipients. With odd answers about the repetition of scenarios. 67% of the interns and 86% of the fellows responded that they would not eliminate any simulation. Conclusions: The evaluation of the scenarios was excellent and satisfactory by the participants.

Comparación de dos estrategias educacionales para la enseñanza del procedimiento de manejo de vía aérea en programas de práctica deliberada aplicados a estudiantes de medicina: ensayo randomizado / Simulation of tracheal intubation for medical students. The effects of anticipatory study

BACKGROUND: Clinical simulation allows the acquisition of procedural skills among medical students. The anticipatory study of these skills may improve the efficiency of simulation sessions. Aim: To Compare two anticipatory study guides in the simulation of airway management, in a cohort of medical students from Chile. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Fifth year medical students were randomly assigned to prepare the simulation of tracheal intubation with a theoretical guide, an audiovisual guide, and a control group without study. The skills acquired were evaluated in a simulated scenario. RESULTS: All groups increased their successful orotracheal intubation (OTI) rate and decreased the time to achieve a successful OTI after each attempt. The study group with a theoretical guide had the higher rate of success in the 1st OTI attempt without feedback. In contrast, the group without any anticipatory study had more failed attempts (1st and 2nd attempt), achieving their first successful OTI in the 3rd attempt after feedback. Conclusions: Study guides improve practice effectiveness. Our results indicate that the best results are obtained by simulation accompanied with immediate directed feedback and opportunities to repeat the procedures, independent of the type of anticipatory study.
