Education Strategies Through Simulation For Training In Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Treatment

Abstract

Theoretical and reflective study based on scientific literature and critical analysis of authors related to teaching strategies through simulation for training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Current teaching methodologies CPR involve realistic simulation strategies and simulations in virtual environments, but the first method provides the best results, allowing proactivity of individuals in their teaching-learning process and bringing them the experience of a life threatening situation. It is noteworthy that health professionals need to be able to assist a victim in cardiac arrest, but even existing effective teaching methodologies to enable them in this subject, is not fully applicable in the Brazilian context of health education.
