Descriptive study of the satisfaction of nursing degree students in high-fidelity clinical simulation practices.

Objective: To describe the level of satisfaction of nursing students with clinical simulation in their undergraduate training.

Method: a descriptive observational study of a retrospective cross section was conducted in undergraduate students in Nursing during the academic years 2016-17 and 2017-18. The instrument used was the High Fidelity Clinical Simulation satisfaction scale in students (ESSAF), a validated, anonymous and self-administered questionnaire (alpha .

Nursing students' emotional intelligence, coping styles and learning satisfaction in clinically simulated palliative care scenarios: An observational study.

Background: Emotional intelligence is highly relevant in palliative care training, considering the coping styles used by nursing students. Clinical simulation provides the opportunity to evaluate these variables in a realistic and natural context.

Objectives: To analyze the possible relation between emotional intelligence, coping styles and satisfaction with one's own self-learning in nursing students participating in simulated scenarios related to palliative care at the end of life.

Assessment of a learning intervention in palliative care based on clinical simulations for nursing students.

Background: Major deficiencies exist in undergraduate nursing education for Palliative Care. Opportunities to care for dying patients are often unavailable to students in traditional clinical settings. Palliative care simulation is an innovative strategy that may help to prepare undergraduate nursing students to provide quality palliative/end of life care.
