Effectiveness of the Maguerez Arch in nursing teaching on vesical catheterism: an almost experimental study

Abstract

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of the Arco de Maguerez in teaching nursing students about the Bladder Catheter. Method Quasi-experimental study conducted at a public university in northeastern Brazil, with 29 students, in a single group, in the period of october 2018. Data were collected before and after using the Arco de Maguerez in educational intervention, using validated instruments, referring to knowledge and practice. IBM SPSS Statistics software version 24 was used for statistical analysis. The level of significance was set at 5% and the 95% confidence interval. Data analysis was performed using the McNemar and Mann-Whitney test. Results The median of correct answers for knowledge was 7, in the pre-test, and 9 in the post-test (p> 0.001). Regarding practice, in the pre-test the median of correct answers was 28 and, in the post-test, it went to 36, p> 0.001. The academics explained that the AM technology based on the problematization of a fictitious clinical case made learning about Bladder Catheterization Delay clear and feasible. Conclusion The Arco de Maguerez was effective in improving the knowledge and skill of nursing students regarding the Bladder Catheter.

Problematization methodology’s impact on nursing and medical students’ knowledge about hypodermoclysis: quasi-experimental study

“…The success of the use of the problematization methodology through the Arch of Maguerez obtained in this study reinforces the contribution of this methodology, which was also observed in other studies on the problematization's use in health (19) .…”

“…Similarly, a Brazilian study that used problematization as a strategy for teaching indwelling urinary catheterization showed a significant increase in the median number of correct answers after the intervention, which reinforces the positive impact of the methodology used (19) .…”

Impacto de la metodología de problematización en el conocimiento de estudiantes de enfermería y medicina sobre hipodermoclisis: estudio cuasiexperimental

“…Al comparar las respuestas correctas obtenidas en el pretest y postest, se observó una mejora significativa en los aspectos teóricos y prácticos. Además, un estudio brasileño que utilizó la problematización como estrategia para la enseñanza del cateterismo urinario permanente mostró un aumento significativo en el promedio de respuestas correctas después de la intervención, lo que refuerza el impacto positivo de dicha la metodología (19) .…”

Criação de tecnologia para capacitação em Suporte Básico de Vida em Ambiente Escolar

“…Nesse sentido, a utilização do Arco de Maguerez se mostrou eficiente para o estabelecimento do diagnóstico situacional e para a escolha das intervenções adequadas para o cenário proposto, promovendo o ensino e a aprendizagem com abordagem problematizadora 10 .…”
