Description
Summary:ABSTRACT Objectives: to evaluate students’ knowledge gain after the implementation of clinical simulation in Nursing Fundamentals disciplines. Methods: a quasi-experimental intervention was carried out with 60 students, distributed in comparison and intervention groups, who underwent traditional teaching and traditional teaching associated with simulated teaching, respectively. Pre-test and post-test instruments were applied to both groups. Results: after analyzing the students’ performance through the applied instruments, both groups had a cognitive evolution along with the taught content, however, when compared, the intervention group obtained a higher knowledge gain than the comparison group (p = 0.016), demonstrating progressive and increasing improvement with the use of the methodology. Conclusions: simulated teaching significantly helps students in gaining technical-cognitive knowledge. Therefore, it is recommended to adhere to the use of this methodology for teaching Nursing Fundamentals. RESUMEN Objetivos: evaluar implementación de simulación clínica en asignaturas pautadas en la Enfermería Fundamental cuanto a la adquisición de conocimiento por discente. Métodos: realizó una intervención casi-experimental con 60 estudiantes, distribuidos en grupos de comparación e intervención, los cuales hicieron uso de la enseñanza tradicional y enseñanza tradicional relacionada a enseñanza simulada, respectivamente. Fueron aplicados instrumentos de pretest y postest a ambos grupos. Resultados: analizado el desempeño de los estudiantes mediante los instrumentos aplicados, ambos los grupos tuvieron una evolución cognitiva al largo del contenido ministrado, pero, cuando comparados, el grupo de intervención obtuvo una adquisición de conocimiento superior al grupo de comparación (p = 0,016), demostrando mejora progresiva y creciente con el uso de la metodología utilizada. Conclusiones: la enseñanza simulada auxilia de manera significativa en la adquisición de conocimiento técnico-cognitivo de los estudiantes. Así, se recomienda adherir al uso de esa metodología en la enseñanza de la Enfermería Fundamental.
