“…Medication administration is an activity that can be developed individually. Some authors have adopted scenarios in which students participated individually (24,26,28,32,37) , in pairs (25,(34)(35) or in groups (27,30) . It was not possible to establish, however, if there are differences between the use of individual scenarios or with more than one student in promoting competence in safely administering medications, therefore studies are needed to ascertain this aspect.…”

Objective: to investigate evidence that indicates the contribution of realistic high, medium or low fidelity simulation to acquire knowledge, skills and attitudes in safe medication administration by nursing students. Methods: an integrative review of experimental studies from MEDLINE, LILACS, Web of Science, Scopus and Science Direct. The descriptors “nursing students”, “simulation”, “high fidelity simulation training”, “medication errors” and “pharmacology” were used to identify 14 studies that answered the research question, and were assessed for accuracy methodological level and level of evidence. Results: there was a sample of quasi-experimental studies, (level 3 of evidence; 78.6%) and randomized clinical trials (level 2 of evidence; 21.4%), whose expressive majority showed superiority of the simulation strategy over the traditional methodology (71.4%). Conclusion: using low and high fidelity simulators, standardized patients and virtual simulation can promote acquisition of essential skills for patient safety.

Objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of the clinical simulation on the cognitive performance of nursing students in adult immunization scenarios in the context of Primary Health Care. Method: a controlled and randomized pre-test and post-test clinical trial applied to random intervention and control groups. 34 undergraduate nursing students were selected and divided into two groups: classes with active participation of students and skills training (control); and classes with active participation of students, skills training, and clinical simulation (intervention). Results: the students in the intervention group performed better than those in the control group in the four assessments of cognitive performance, with statistical significance in the assessments of immediate (p=0.031) and late (1-20 days) (p=0.031) knowledge. Conclusion: from the simulation, students learn more in the short and medium terms. The information learned is retained for longer and the students are better prepared for the professional practice.

“…Scenarios are inspired by actual events that students process during which various using equipment is used. From simple educational training simulators, designed for learning simple skills (intubation, intravenous injection), to patient simulators that mimic as closely as possible the person and their reactions depending on the treatment [5][6][7][8]. Classes conducted using simulation methods make it possible to continuously repeat the practical skills and their assessment and analysis.…”

Medical simulation is a rapidly growing branch of education of nurses in Poland. Simulation is a method used in education in order to develop students' skills and to enable them to gain experience through an exact reconstruction of the situation using specially prepared scenarios. Simulating real events, that students may encounter in clinical practice gives the opportunity to constantly repeat the practical skills, as well as their assessment and analysis. The main purpose of medical simulation is to educate and improve patient safety. The experience of many university centres in the world shows that medical simulation training gives the opportunity to prepare better medical staff for the profession in a shorter time than traditional education. The aim of the work is an introduction to modern methods of education-medical simulation. Medical simulation training provides great educational opportunities and allows the improvement of practical skills. Streszczenie Symulacja medyczna to dynamicznie rozwijający się dział edukacji w kształceniu pielęgniarek w Polsce. Symulacja jest techniką stosowaną w edukacji w celu rozwijania umiejętności i doświadczenia studentów poprzez wierne odtworzenie sytuacji i warunków realnych na podstawie specjalnie przygotowanych scenariuszy. Symulowanie rzeczywistych zdarzeń spotykanych w praktyce klinicznej umożliwia studentom ciągłe powtarzanie praktycznych umiejętności oraz ich ocenę i analizę. Głównymi celami symulacji medycznej są edukacja i poprawa bezpieczeństwa pacjentów. Doświadczenia wielu ośrodków uniwersyteckich na świecie dowodzą, że realizacja kształcenia metodą symulacji medycznej pozwala na lepsze przygotowanie personelu medycznego do zawodu, w krótszym czasie niż tradycyjna edukacja i dodatkowo wpływa wyraźnie na jakość opieki. Celem pracy jest wprowadzenie w tematykę nowoczesnej metody kształcenia-symulacji medycznej. Kształcenie metodą symulacji medycznej zapewnia ogromne możliwości edukacyjne i pozwala doskonalić umiejętności praktyczne.
