Midwives in a master's program reported that simulation-based education for postpartum hemorrhage management enhanced their awareness and confidence. This training fostered valuable experiential learning and improved teamwork.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Nursing Simulation
- Obstetric Emergencies
Background:
- Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a critical obstetric emergency requiring skilled management.
- Simulation-based education (SBE) offers a safe environment for healthcare professionals to practice emergency response.
- Master's-level midwifery education should incorporate advanced training for PPH management.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the experiences of midwives in a master's program undergoing SBE for PPH management.
- To understand the perceived impact of SBE on midwives' preparedness and confidence in handling PPH.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative descriptive phenomenological study.
- 15 master's midwifery students participated.
- SBE with PPH scenarios followed by semi-structured interviews.
Main Results:
- Four key themes emerged: simulation experience, awareness formation, emotional effects, and team member impact.
- Midwives reported increased awareness and confidence in PPH management.
- Emotional responses (stress, happiness) and enhanced team collaboration were noted.
Conclusions:
- SBE for PPH management is effective in increasing midwife awareness and confidence.
- Simulation provides valuable experiential learning and positively impacts teamwork.
- This educational approach is beneficial for advanced midwifery training in emergency obstetric care.
