Educational Strategy in Exchange Transfusion

Students assigned to this group will receive access to a digital didactic environment where they will have at their disposal the exchange transfusion guide and a complete video explaining the indications, the preparation of supplies and the newborn for the procedure, the management of medical devices required and a step-by-step description of the exchange transfusion technique. Finally, the student will see an integrated clinical case. This video will be developed by the neonatology and paediatric medical education teaching team in the simulation laboratory of the university using neonatal high-fidelity simulators, a simulated mother and the necessary medical equipment and supplies.

The educational intervention will be developed with the students, led by the neonatology teacher, in the simulation laboratory. For the training, neonatal high-fidelity simulators, clinical history and paraclinical exams, necessary supplies for the procedure, a simulated mother, a professional nurse and a nursing assistant will be available. Training will take place in individual skill stations (identification of indications, communication, management of medical devices and procedures) and in integrated clinical scenarios.
