“…However, since popularisation, research studies had focused primarily on the measurement of outcomes such as knowledge gain [9][10][11] , self-efficacy, self-confidence and skills attainment [12][13][14][15][16][17][18] . Studies which compared HF-HPSMs with other popular pedagogic approaches yielded some interesting results; demonstrating the superiority of HF-HPSMs in the student-centred approach to acquiring competent skills over both problem based learning [19] and interactive case study [20] .…”

Background: The continued use of high fidelity full sized human patient simulation manikins (HF-HPSMs) for developing decision making skills of nursing students has led to growing research focusing its value on student learning and decision making skills. Methods:In October 2012, a cross-sectional survey using the 24-item Nurse Decision-Making Instrument was used to explore the decision making process of 232 pre-registration nursing students (age 22.0 ± 5.4; 83.2% female) in Singapore. Results:The independent samples t-tests demonstrated three significant predictive indicators. These indicators include: prior experience in high fidelity simulation based on pre-enrolled nursing course (t = 70.6, p = .001), actual hands-on practice (t = 69.66, p < .005) and active participation in debrief (t = 70.11, p < .005). A complete experience based on role-playing followed by active discussion in debrief was a significant contributor to the decision making process (t = 73.6667, p < .005). However, the regression model indicated active participation in debrief as a significant variable which explained its development (t = 12.633, p < .005). Conclusions:This study demonstrated the usefulness of active participation in simulation learning for an analyticintuitive approach to decision making, however active participation in debrief was a more important influencing element than role-playing. In situations where resources are limited for students to experience hands-on role-playing, peer reviewing and feedback on others' experiences could benefit students, just as much. However, further study is warranted to determine the development of HF-HPSMs as a pedagogic tool for enhancing the decision making process of nursing students.

“…The scores evaluated were higher after the different courses but better for the mixed method. It is also in this group that one finds the best perception of the theoretical knowledge acquired, the highest level of confidence and the lowest level of anxiety [9]. The bimanual compression technique was a new skill for most participants but was easy to master with averages after demonstration reaching easily more than 90%.…”

Objective: To assess a training approach in Emergency Obstetric and Neonatal Care (EmONC) to strengthen skills of healthcare providers and reduce maternal mortality. Materials and methods: The approach was based on the skills training using the so-called "humanist" method and "life saving skills". Simulated practice took place in the classroom through thirteen clinical stations summarizing the clinical skills on EmONC. The evaluation was done in all phases and the results were recorded in a database to document the progress of each learner. Results: We trained 432 providers in 10 months. The increase in technical achievements of each participant was documented through a database. The combination of training based on the model "learning by doing" has ensured learning and mastering all EmONC skills particularly postpartum haemorrhage management and reduced missed learning opportunities. Conclusion: The impact of training on postpartum haemorrhage management and maternal mortality is a major challenge in terms of prospects.

“…8 A retrospective study assessed the presence of obstetric and neonatal complications in shoulder dystocia before nd after eight-year training, not only with improved use of post-training maneuvers but also with improved outcomes with a statistically significant decrease in neonatal lesions at birth. 9 The raising of the arms is a contingency which is not exceptional and often comes but not always complicate an inopportune maneuver of traction too early or outside the uterine contraction.…”

Background: Maternal mortality, which constitutes the extreme point of the existing inequality between women in poor and rich countries, remains very high in Africa south of the Sahara. The objective of this study was to introduce a new training approach in Emergency Obstetric and Neonatal Care (EmONC) entered in Senegal to strengthen the skills of healthcare providers.Methods: The approach was based on the skills training using the so-called "humanist" method and "lifesaving skills". Simulated practice took place in the classroom through thirteen clinical stations summarizing the clinical skills on EmONC. The evaluation was done in all phases and the results were recorded in a database to document the progress of each learner.Results: With this approach, 432 providers were trained in 10 months. The increase in technical achievements of each participant was documented through the database. The combination of training based on the model “learning by doing” has ensured learning and mastering all EmONC skills and reduced missed learning opportunities as observed in former EmONC trainings.Conclusions: The impact of training on EmONC indicators and the introduction of this learning modality in basic training are the two major challenges in terms of prospects.
