Puzzle game-based learning: a new approach to promote learning of principles of coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

BMC Med Educ

April 2023

Department of operating room, Nursing and midwifery research center, School of nursing and midwifery, Isfahan university of medical sciences, Isfahan, Iran.

Introduction: Since learning with high educational quality requires an advanced intervention. This study seeks to answer how many puzzles game-based training can improve knowledge and cognitive function of surgical technology students in CABG surgery and its sequence, as well as the tools and equipment used in each stage of surgery and the sequence of their preparation.

Materials And Methods: This study was carried out as a quasi-experimental single-group pre-test-post-test, during which, after designing a puzzle game including various stages of surgery (from the preparation of the patient for surgical sutures and the necessary equipment to perform each stage), 18 people from third-year surgical technology students who met the inclusion criteria were entered in the study by convenience sampling method and based on the sample size determined using a similar study and they participated in the test of knowledge and cognitive function, that the validity and reliability were measured, before the intervention and 14 days after the intervention (using a puzzle game).

Article Synopsis
  • - A 13-year-old boy presented with recurrent painful purpura on his arms, initially leading doctors to consider various common conditions such as IgA vasculitis and ITP, but helped by the discovery of underlying psychological issues.
  • - After numerous diagnostic tests and communication with the patient, the condition was ultimately identified as dermatitis artefacta, which caused confusion and extended the diagnosis process.
  • - To avoid unnecessary medical costs and expedite future diagnoses, the authors suggest implementing a quicker assessment protocol for identifying dermatitis artefacta in pediatric patients presenting with purpura.
