Summary

Introduction: In situ simulation is a methodology that meets the concept of permanent education, since it allows learning from the context of practice and in the work environment itself. Objective: to compare the development of skills (knowledge and skills) for CPR between groups submitted to different in situ simulation periodicities, and to identify the level of confidence to participate in a CPR. Method: A randomized controlled, non-blind study comparing 3 periodicities of educational intervention performed by in situ simulation. This study will include nursing professionals from the nephrology department of a university hospital. The sample will be composed of 24 randomized participants in the groups, using opaque envelopes for each periodicity of training and professional category, being subdivided into 3 groups of periodicities with intervals of 2, 4 and 8 months. The instruments will evaluate the knowledge and skills in cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the perception of preparation for performing the maneuvers.

Detailed description

The objective is to compare the development of skills (knowledge and skills) for CPR between groups submitted to different in situ simulation periodicities, and to identify the level of confidence to attend a CPR.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	educational intervention	The simulation scenarios were constructed using the service environment, with real equipment and materials and a low fidelity mannequin. The interventions were not filmed, and the clinical cases elaborated were fictitious, with clear objectives and developed according to the context of the unit. The simulations took place during the working hours of the participants, with the expected duration of the 10 minutes (average) for the scenario, and the average duration of the debriefing was 10 minutes, which took place immediately after the simulation and in the same location of the scenario.
