Medical students showed significant improvements in confidence, knowledge, and procedural skills after simulation-based training in intubation, arterial line placement, lumbar puncture, and central line insertion.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Simulation
  • Procedural Skills Training

Background:

  • Medical students require proficiency in critical procedures like intubation and central line insertion.
  • Traditional training methods may not adequately prepare students for real-world clinical scenarios.
  • Simulation-based learning offers a controlled environment for skill acquisition.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the efficacy of a learner-centered, simulation-based training program.
  • To enhance medical students' skills in intubation, arterial line placement, lumbar puncture, and central line insertion.
  • To evaluate improvements in student confidence and knowledge.

Main Methods:

  • Second and third-year medical students participated in the training.

  • Anesthesiology residents provided hands-on training and skill assessment.
  • Pre- and post-training assessments included surveys, knowledge tests, and procedural checklists.

    • Main Results:

    • All 24 participating students demonstrated significant increases in confidence (P < .001).
    • Statistically significant improvements were observed in knowledge scores for intubation and arterial line placement (P < .001).
    • Procedural performance scores showed marked improvement across all four procedures (P < .001).

    Conclusions:

    • Simulation-based training effectively enhanced medical students' self-confidence, knowledge, and procedural skills.
    • The learner-centered approach, with individual resident attention, was well-received by students.
    • This training modality is a valuable tool for developing essential clinical competencies.
