Simulación en la adquisición de competencias clínicas para realizar examen de oído en estudiantes de medicina de séptimo ciclo de la Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja, período septiembre 2013-febrero 2014

Abstract

´This project seeks to determine which mode of teaching: classroom or virtual, both based on simulation helps to keep the memory footprint low time clinical competence acquired “hearing test”. A sample of 50 students took 7th. Cycle of Doctor Titration of Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja (UTPL): 25 students on campus and 25 students in virtual mode; to which they were provided with training materials and implemented a workshop to benchmark "hearing test". Then we proceeded to assess students with the Objective Structured Clinical Evaluation (OSCE). The results obtained were as follows: In modality reach 28% with similar scores of 18 (good) and 14-16 (sufficient); in virtual mode results reach 32% with rating of 19 (significant); in any of the two modes lower grades to 10 (inadequate and poor) were achieved. Concluding that all students acquire clinical competence without much difference between both modalities (CI 95 % σ = 0.83).
