Accepts healthy volunteers: yes
Allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED
Intervention model: PARALLEL
Intervention model description: This is a randomized, non-blind controlled trial that will compare three periodicities of an educational intervention to be performed through in situ simulation. Group A will be submitted to intervention at 8-month intervals, group B every four months and group C every two months; each group will be divided into two subgroups, totaling six subgroups consisting of one nurse and three nursing technicians.

The research was approved by the Research Ethics Committees of the Federal University of Health Sciences of Porto Alegre, under approval certificate no. 56516216.9.0000.5345, and of the Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul/PUCRS, under approval certificate no. 56516216.9.3001.5336.
Primary purpose: HEALTH_SERVICES_RESEARCH

Brief summary: Introduction: In situ simulation is a methodology that meets the concept of permanent education, since it allows learning from the context of practice and in the work environment itself.

Objective: to compare the development of skills (knowledge and skills) for CPR between groups submitted to different in situ simulation periodicities, and to identify the level of confidence to participate in a CPR.

Method: A randomized controlled, non-blind study comparing 3 periodicities of educational intervention performed by in situ simulation. This study will include nursing professionals from the nephrology department of a university hospital. The sample will be composed of 24 randomized participants in the groups, using opaque envelopes for each periodicity of training and professional category, being subdivided into 3 groups of periodicities with intervals of 2, 4 and 8 months. The instruments will evaluate the knowledge and skills in cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the perception of preparation for performing the maneuvers.

Detailed description: The objective is to compare the development of skills (knowledge and skills) for CPR between groups submitted to different in situ simulation periodicities, and to identify the level of confidence to attend a CPR.
