Crisis-ready educational skills of life support in newborns and adults' scenarios: the impact of simulation-based training on student proficiency.

Objective: Aim: To assess the impact of multidisciplinary simulation training on the educational outcomes of medical students in the emergency care of adults and newborns and implement changes in the curriculum to master simulation scenarios more.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: To assess the differences in learning outcomes between medical students who study the same curriculum without simulation interventions and those who undergo multidisciplinary emergency care simulation training. A quasi-experimental approach was used to assign students to the Intervention Group or the Control Group.

Results: Results: According to individual criteria, the lowest scores in both groups were obtained for the stages that required the greatest accuracy and correct technique. After the appropriate cycle of initiation, the results in both groups improved significantly, but the results of students from the first group were significantly higher than those of students from the second group. Despite the absence of a significant difference in the average overall score for the skills, students in the first group significantly improved the accuracy and correctness of the criteria that assess the technical aspects of performance, while students in the second group mainly improved the quality of the descriptive and communicative parts of the practical skill.

Conclusion: Conclusions: We believe that reallocating curricular time to additional hours dedicated to simulation scenarios will better prepare aspiring healthcare professionals for the demanding and dynamic nature of their career, as we continue to increase our understanding of the potential of simulation-based education.
