Effect of medical simulation teaching on clinical education of critical care medical students:a meta-ccanalysis
Objective To evaluate the effect of medical simulation teaching on the clinical knowledge acquisition and skills improvement of critical care medical students,and to clarify the practical value and appli-cation prospects of simulation teaching in modern critical care medical education.Methods A systematic search was conducted in databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Da-ta,PubMed,EMBASE,MEDLINE,Education Resources Information Centre(ERIC),British Education Index,and Australian Education Index,for all randomized controlled trials comparing medical simulation teaching with traditional teaching methods in critical care medical education from inception to December 2023.Through rigorous quality assessment,data extraction,and meta-analysis of the included literature to comprehensively quantify the benefits of medical simulation teaching versus traditional teaching methods in the field of critical care medicine.Results Compared with traditional teaching methods,medical simulation teaching showed sig-nificant advantages in enhancing the clinical knowledge and skills of critical care medical students,especially high fidelity simulation teaching effect is more apparent,with statistically significant differences(standardized mean difference=0.83,0.94,95%CI 0.42-1.24,0.48-1.40,P<0.001).Conclusion The application of simulation teaching in the clinical education of critical care medical students has more advantageous than tradi-tional teaching methods,which can effectively promoting the acquisition of clinical knowledge and skills,and high-fidelity simulation teaching is particularly effective.
