ANA REYNOLDS (PORTUGAL) International conference on Simulation-based training in medicine
Kyiv, Ukraine
19-20 March 2015
“STRUCTURING A SIMULATION-BASED TRAINING PROGRAMME”
2
COGNITIVE SCIENCES RESEARCH
LEARNING IS A MULTI-STEP PROCESS
Acquisition of information (encoding in the brain – memory);
Retention and maintenance;
Retrieval (activation of association networks).
3
DEPENDING ON HOW INFORMATION IS PRESENTED:
Students can use several intelligences to process it
A major understanding will come via their strongest ones.
“There are seven independent types of intelligence”
(Gardner H. The theory of multiple intelligences,1983)

Verbal-linguistic
Visual/Spatial
Bodily- kinetic
Logical-mathematical
Musical
Interpersonal Intrapersonal

LEARNING OUTCOMES IMPROVE IF STUDENT’S LEARNING STYLE IS MATCHED BY APPROPRIATE TEACHING METHODS.

24
Intrapartum care: • Vaginal examination • Cervical characteristics: Position, Consistency, Effacement, Dilatation.
25
Intrapartum care: • Diagnosis of an occiput presentation: Identification of sagital suture, small
fontanel, large fontanel. • Determination of foetal position and variety.
26
Intrapartum care: • Identification of ischial spines: evaluation of the level of descent of foetal head.
27
Intrapartum care: • Conduction of a normal delivery (vertex): Assessment of head descent, Assessment of internal rotation, Protection of the perineum, Delivery of the head, Identification of nuchal cords.
Delivery of the shoulders
28
Intrapartum care: • Clamping and cutting the umbilical cord
29
Intrapartum care: • Evaluation of placental separation and placenta delivery
30
Intrapartum care: • Evaluation of post-delivery uterine contraction
31
• Pacient actor / Role Play
• Pelvic examination on the simulator
• Gynaecological history;
• Obstetrical history
LAST SESSION: Gynaecological and obstetrical pathology.

The Portuguese College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology adopted two simulation-based training programmes in Obstetrics as part of residency training:
“Basic Interventions in Labor and Delivery” “Obstetric Emergencies”

eg 2. POST-GRADUATION/CONTINUING EDUCATION
OBST/GYN RESIDENTS AND OBSTETRIC STAFF

37
TARGET POPULATION • 1st to 3rd year Obst/Gyn residents
GOALS • Develop knowledge and technical skills essential for intra-partum care
(acquisition of basic skills);
• Promote knowledge, technical and behavioral skills necessary to deal with an obstetric emergency.
• Avoid initial training with the patient;
“Basic Interventions in Labor and Delivery”
38
•Presentation;
•Intra-partum care;
•Concepts and training in the simulator of:
•Birth in cephalic vertex presentation;
•Instrumented birth (concepts and training in the simulator):
- Vaccum;
- Non-rotational forceps;
•Breech delivery (concepts and training in the simulator);
•Introduction to "obstetric emergencies“: the resolution of dystocia shoulder;
•Evaluation of the training by the trainees;
•Closing.
PROGRAMME CONTENT (theoretical and practical session)
DURATION AND SCHEDULE: 5 HOURS (1 session)

41
TARGET POPULATION • Obst/Gyn residents and specialists
• Midwifes (nurses specialized in maternal/obstetrical health)
GOALS • Develop skills to deal with obstetric emergencies (individually and as
team member: knowledge, technical skills and attitudes/behavior/ inter-personal relationship).
• Be aware/interiorization of management protocols;
• Avoid initial training with the patient.
“Obstetric Emergencies”.
42
•Presentation; • Resolution of 6 obstetric emergency situations (simulated) intercalated by brief interactive sessions (reinforce concepts, presentation of the management protocol and self-assessment of performance); • Evaluation of the training by the trainees; • Closing.
PROGRAMME CONTENT (theoretical and practical session)
DURATION AND SCHEDULE: 6 HOURS (1 session)

Target population Trainees’ qualification,…
• Pedagogical methodology and form of training organization Programme content, design stations/scenarios; debriefing methodology,…
Duration of training and schedule (number of sessions and their distribution) Type of evaluation (formative versus summative) Use validated assessment tools for summative evaluation.
Define trainee’s curricular gains with the training (attendance certificate versus competence certification)
Set minimum attendance criterion
Obtain trainees’ feedback on the training (satisfaction questionnaire)
ESTABLISH PEDAGOGICAL METHODOLOGIES (SIMULATION-BASED)
