“…The 3-item survey instrument was adapted from a self-assessment used in medical education for students to rate their proficiency, confidence, and anxiety in performing procedural skills. 15 The literature has shown anxiety, perceived proficiency, and self-confidence can be used as indicators of performance and competence. [16][17][18] Faculty members hypothesized that students' selfratings of anxiety, proficiency, confidence, and ability to perform injections based on faculty observations would be better after using the higher-fidelity injection arm than after using the low-fidelity injection pad.…”

Objective. To evaluate 2 forms of simulation used to train and assess third-year pharmacy students' subcutaneous and intramuscular injection techniques. Design. A cross-over comparison was used to evaluate an injection pad vs a patient simulator injection arm to train students in injection administration. Assessment. Students completed a survey instrument rating their proficiency, confidence, and anxiety before and after each form of simulated practice. All students demonstrated competence to administer an injection to a peer after using both forms of simulation. Students' self-ratings of proficiency and confidence improved and anxiety decreased after practicing injections with both forms of simulation. The only significant difference in performance seen between students who used the 2 types of simulations was in students who first practiced with the injection pad followed by the injection arm. Conclusion. Student ability to administer an injection and their self-perceived levels of confidence, proficiency, and anxiety were not dependent on the type of simulation training used.

“…The authors go on to show that skills in laboratories result in students performing more clinical skills whilst on clinical rotation [17]. Another recent study showed that a concentrated course in procedural skills can improve students' own assessment of their proficiency, confidence and anxiety levels [18]. The surgical SSC that we have introduced encourages students to perform a variety of ward procedures.…”
