The reform of the medical sector raises the problem of improving medical education. Actual improvement of the level of practical skills during the study, especially on the provision of emergency medical care, remains. The purpose of the work is to analyze the effectiveness of simulation trainings as a method of training in Zaporizhzhia State Medical University.
An assessment was made of the effectiveness of hands-on skills acquired by senior students on the topic of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the National Police staff for the first aid. The students of the senior courses had a sufficient initial level of practical skills of the primary survey (89.2±1.4) % and chest compression (88.2±1.2) %. However, they had low initial levels of practical skills, which statistically significantly increased after a weekly simulation training, airway maintenance (from (32.8±2.2) % to (76.4±2.2) %, work with the defibrillator (from (18.5±2.0) % to (79.8±2.4) %, the IV/IO access (from (17.3±2.0) % to (62.8± 2.4) %, consistency and clear division of duties in the team (from (42.6±2.2) % to (89.4±2.0) % and from (39.3±1.2) % to (90.4±1.3) % respectively); the use of witnesses as assistants (from (32.6±1.7) % to (92.0±1.8 %). Also, a sufficiently low basic level of practical skills of National Police staff was found, which statistically significantly increased after a weekly simulation training, of the primary survey (from (12.2±0.19) % to (84.4±0.16) %, stop bleeding (from (56.8±0.16) % to (90.4±0.15) %, basic CPR (from (8.2±0.14) % to (71.4±0.16) %, evacuation of victims (from (16.8±0.16) % to (76.4±0.15) %, fixation of the cervical spine (from (12.3±0.15) % to (72.4±0.14) %, triage (from (15.8±0.16) % to (74.4±0.16) %, physiological childbirth (from (6.2±0.14) % to (70.4±0.14) %. Thus, passing of a weekly simulation training allowed to statistically significantly increase the level of mastery of practical skills both senior students and National Police staff.
