RESUMO
Objective To compare scene simulation teaching method with traditional methods on training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for the practice students. Methods A convenience sample of 62 nursing students in the emergency department of our hospital in 2014 were recruited as the observation group,and 75 practice students in 2013 were recruited as the control group. The observation group used the scene simulation teaching method for students and the control group used the traditional methods. The students′theoretical knowledge, operation skill of CPR and total score of core capability were compared between two groups. Results The theoretical knowledge, operation skill of CPR and total score of core capability in the observation group were (85.23±6.36), (86.90±4.85), (217.98±6.06), significantly higher than those of the control group, which were (75.36±7.77), (82.38±8.84), (209.33±8.91), t= 8.02, 3.60 and 6.50, P<0.01. Conclusions The scene simulation teaching method is an effective form of emergency department training in CPR, help to improve students practice ability and the ability of emergency cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
