Simulación en la adquisición de competencias clínicas para la atención de emergencias obstetricias, distocia de hombros en estudiantes de medicina de la Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja, periodo septiembre 2013- febrero 2014.

Abstract

The main objective was to implement simulation workshops in obstetric shoulder dystocia attention by means of virtual and face-to-face teaching methodology, in order to evaluate the memory footprint in clinical competence. The methodology used was of a descriptive, prospective type with a quantitative design and a transversal approach. The first result obtained was the design of the didactic material and subsequent implementation of a simulation workshop for the teaching of obstetric emergency care: shoulder dystocia to 58 students of 9th cycle in face-to-face (29) and virtual (29) modalities. Within the second result, the memory footprint of the clinical competence was evaluated through the ECOE, being acquired both in the evaluation at the end of the workshop and at the end of the cycle. Without finding greater difference in the final results for the acquisition of clinical competences in both evaluations. In conclusion, the design and implementation of a simulation workshop in the UTPL is feasible, since it improves the acquisition of clinical skills in obstetric emergencies: shoulder dystocia, in medical students.
