The Effect Of Sımulatıon-Based Postpartum Bleedıng Management On Mıdwıfery Students

This study was planned to determine the effect of simulation-based postpartum hemorrhage management on the application skills, satisfaction, self-confidence and self-efficacy-competences of Health Sciences University Hamidiye Health Sciences Faculty Midwifery Department 3rd year students. The research, which was planned in a randomized controlled experimental design, will be conducted with Istanbul Health Sciences University Hamidiye Health Sciences Faculty 3rd year midwifery (N:82) students. Students participating in the study will be divided into intervention (n:41) and control (n:41) groups according to the computer-assisted simple random sampling technique. Before the application, both groups will be given 2 hours of theoretical information on the evaluation and management of postpartum hemorrhage. 41 students assigned to the intervention group will be given a high-fidelity simulator, and 41 students assigned to the control group will be given practical training accompanied by an adult standard patient care model. "Descriptive Information Form", "Evaluation of Simulation-Based Learning Scale", "Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale", "Self-Efficacy Scale" and "Early Postpartum Hemorrhage Management Skill Evaluation Form" will be applied to the students participating in the research.

This study was planned to determine the effect of simulation-based postpartum hemorrhage management on the application skills, satisfaction, self-confidence and self-efficacy-competences of Health Sciences University Hamidiye Health Sciences Faculty Midwifery Department 3rd year students.

The research population consisted of 3rd grade students who took the "Risky Birth and Postpartum Period" course, studying at the Department of Midwifery, Hamidiye Faculty of Health Sciences, in the spring semester of the 2021-2022 academic year (N:82). Students who volunteered to participate in the study were included in the study. In the study, the entire target population was reached, except for the 4 students who were absent from the "Risky Birth and Postpartum Period" course (N:78). Computer-assisted randomization will be used in the study, and random assignment was made to the intervention (n:39) and control (n:39) groups by entering the number of cases through the program whose URL address is https://www.randomizer.org.

An introductory information form was applied to all groups, and informed consent was obtained from the students before the applications. The students were given information about the introduction of the simulator and the model, the flow chart of the training plan, the content of the training plan, the environment, the locations of the materials. Before the application, all groups were given theoretical information about postpartum hemorrhage management for 2 hours with a power point presentation. "Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence Scale in Learning" and "Self-Efficacy Scale" were applied as a pre-test after the information. Intervention group students were given practical training on postpartum hemorrhage assessment and management in the basic skills laboratory, accompanied by an adult standard patient care model, with a high-reality Gaumard Scientific brand, product code: S550.100 Noella simulator in the simulation laboratory of the Midwifery department. After the application, "Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale", "Self-Efficacy Scale" and "Early Postpartum Hemorrhage Management Skill Assessment Form" were applied to all students as a post-test, and "Scale for Evaluation of Simulation-Based Learning" to the intervention group. Four weeks after the training, the "Early Postpartum Hemorrhage Management Skill Assessment Form" and "Self-Efficacy Scale" were applied to the students again as a follow-up test.

After the research was completed, postpartum hemorrhage management was applied to the control group students with a high-reality simulator, accompanied by a scenario, so that all students could benefit from the benefits of simulation-based education. At the end of the simulation applications, an analysis session was held for the students accompanied by the video recordings taken during the applications. During the debriefing session, it was aimed to help students see their mistakes and organize their practices without judging by using a constructive language.
