Exploring the use of immersive simulation to teach research skills to student paramedics in higher education: A mixed methods approach.

January 2025
Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, Airbase Avenue, Neachley, Shifnal, TF11 8UR.
Objectives: Within paramedic education immersive simulation is widely used to teach technical skills, but its application to non-technical aspects of practice, such as research skills, is limited. This study aimed to explore immersive simulation as a tool to teach specific research skills to paramedic students in higher education to investigate its novel capacity beyond the more traditionally considered technical elements of practice.
Methods: A didactic pre-briefing was delivered to undergraduate paramedic students before they undertook an immersive simulation in which they were expected to assess, extricate, and treat a stroke patient, whilst also assessing whether he was suitable to be enrolled onto a clinical trial, provide information on this, and take consent.

Background: While two-thirds of the 57 million people with dementia worldwide live in low- and middle-income countries, research to inform dementia-related policy in these regions remains scarce. We aimed to increase early dementia diagnosis and the use of standardized cognitive assessment by PCP in primary care settings in Cuba METHOD: We selected 16 Primary care clinics, with an estimated 160-200 providers. Clinics were carefully paired based on a number of providers, population demographics, and baseline rates of cognitive impairment diagnosis before being randomized into two groups: one to receive a targeted intervention and the other to continue with usual care practices.

However, there is a noticeable scarcity of evidence concerning support following dementia diagnosis. Our objective was to examine the following aspects: the nature and type of evidence pertaining to post-diagnostic support within the initial two years of diagnosis; the conceptualization of post-diagnostic support; and the existing gaps in the literature concerning this essential support.
