MARTINEZ ISAAC, Jorge Alberto et al. Results of the performance tests of specialized professional competences in postgraduate education for nursing at the clinical-surgical services. Educ Med Super [online]. 2015, vol.29, n.3. ISSN 0864-2141.

A study was conducted where a pre-experiment was applied in pedagogic sciences which allowed us to compare the results of two performance tests carried out in a sample of nursing professionals and of clinical surgical hospital professionals and 2nd and 3rd degree specialists in La Habana province. This study was aimed to identify the need for postgraduate formation for clinical and surgical nursing in order to meet the learning requirements of these professionals and to increase the quality of care in hospitals. A performance test was made before and after the intervention using non-parametric paired sample. These tests were carried out after determining the specialized professional competencies for the clinical and surgical nursing and yielded as results the need for postgraduate formation. The suggested intervention managed to improve the professional performance and to make patients feel satisfied with the nursing care rendered.
