Simulação realística: o conhecimento desta prática pedagógica pelo acadêmico no curso de enfermagem

Abstract

Introduction: Realistic simulation is used in higher education to offer training in technical, cognitive and attitudinal skills. It allows the academic to handle equipment for training procedures and the practice of clinical judgment, in addition, scenarios are developed very close to the clinical reality, attributing to the student the experience of daily work situations, enabling him to develop various skills, interprofessional relationships, communicating with the patient, creating a clinical criterion and determining decision making. Objective: to seek and analyze the nursing students' understanding of realistic simulation within the nursing undergraduate course Methodology: This is a qualitative study with a descriptive approach. Results: There is a predominance of students who know what they partially agree with who know the realistic simulation (40%); who heard about realistic simulation at some point during their graduation (34.7%); that the implementation of realistic simulation should be implemented in the curricular matrix of the institution's nursing course (70.7%); that realistic simulation expands the relationship between teachers and students, and thereby facilitates the teaching-learning process (74.7%). Conclusion: Realistic simulation is very important in the academic life, as it gives more confidence when it comes to health practice. In the students' view, the institution should adopt realistic simulation not only for nursing, but also for other courses. They also recognized that it is important to create a discipline on realistic simulation in the curricular matrices of the institution, as it represents the real scenarios of performance.
