Segurança do paciente na prática simulada durante a graduação na área da saúde

Abstract

Objective: identify among undergraduate students of Biomedicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Medicine and Nutrition courses, the recognition of the Patient Safety approach through Realistic Simulation during their academic training. Method: quantitative, exploratory and descriptive research, carried out in March and April 2021, using an electronic questionnaire. 222 undergraduate students from the aforementioned courses at a Higher Education Institution in São Paulo participated. Results: it was noticed that 81.9% of students recognized the inclusion of patient safety during simulated practices, however 31.5% considered the approach to this topic insufficient during their academic training, especially in the courses of Biomedicine, Physiotherapy and Nutrition (p<0.001). Conclusion: there was a lack of uniformity in the approach to patient safety among undergraduate courses, pointing out the need to revise the curricula to address this issue, through simulated practices that significantly contribute to the learning and development of skills.
