RODRIGUEZ GONZALEZ, Azucena Maribel; MARTINEZ CERVANTES, Enrique Adrián; GARZA GARZA, Gregorio Gerardo y RIVERA CAVAZOS, Andrea. Medical students’ satisfaction with clinical simulation. Educ Med Super [online]. 2021, vol.35, n.3 Epub 01-Sep-2021. ISSN 1561-2902.
Introduction:
Technological development has produced changes in the teaching-learning processes. Clinical simulation also shows controversial results. Student satisfaction is related to acquired level of learning.
Objective:
To identify the level of satisfaction of medical students with the use of clinical simulation during their academic training.
Methods:
Descriptive, cross-sectional and observational study carried out, between August and November, 2019, at the Clinical Simulation Laboratory of University of Monterrey. Medical students were included, except for students repeating their studies and those who were used to being absent. Surveys incomplete on main variables were eliminated. The census sample was n=509. The Quality and Satisfaction Survey of Clinical Simulation (Cronbach's Alpha .861) was used, Likert type 1-5, with three components: significant learning, simulation structure and interpersonal relationship. Descriptive statistics were made.
Results:
The male sex predominated 54.8% (279), while the average age was 21.8 years (SD 4.1). The median of the scale score was 73 (15-75). The highest level of satisfaction was obtained in the seventh semester, accounting for 74 (15-75) and in General Surgery, accounting for 75 (75-59). The items with the highest percentage of "Strongly agree" were "Teacher training is adequate" (90.8%: 462) and "Simulation is a useful teaching method for learning" (89.4%: 455). The lower score corresponded to “The case duration is adequate" (61.1%: 311) and "In simulation, it is useful to watch recorded performances themselves" (61.3%: 312).
Conclusion:
There is a high level of satisfaction with the use of clinical simulation during the training of medical students.
