| dc.description.sponsorship | Introduction: Training the general population in basic life support is essential
because it increases the likelihood that laypeople will perform high-quality
cardiopulmonary resuscitation early on, which has a significant impact on patient
outcomes. The university stage is a pivotal time to impart this knowledge
to individuals outside the healthcare sector. This study aims to describe and
analyses the extent to which students on the Medicine degree programme at
the University of Granada have acquired competencies in teaching methodology
applied to life support instruction. Additionally, the study aims to evaluate the
potential academic and social impact of this training intervention.
Methods: This is a prospective observational study targeting a selected group
of medical students from the University of Granada. The students received
specific training in teaching methodology applied to basic life support teaching
and learning processes. The students’ acquisition of various skills is assessed to
determine their readiness to become trainers in this field.
Results: A total of 89 students, all in their third to fifth year of university,
received training in the methodology applied to teaching and learning processes
in basic life support. This training used the dierent phases of the demonstrative
method. Four training sessions were conducted, during which the phases of the
demonstrative method were explained in detail and the students were given the
opportunity to carry them out. The performance of the entire process was then
assessed. As a result, over 89% of students successfully completed the phases of
the demonstrative method.
Discussion: Medical Degree students are capable of acquiring skills in teaching
methodology to conduct Basic Life Support training courses for the general
population. This is independent of the year in which they are in their training,
as long as they have received theoretical training in this subject. Further studies
are encouraged by these results, with the aim of extending this type of training
to other medical education centers nationwide. | es_ES |
