| Popis: | Background & Objective: The operating room is a highly complex and stressful environment. Direct training in this environment may have detrimental effects on employees' performance and students' learning. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the impact of simulated operating rooms at clinical skill centers on the skills and satisfaction of operating room students at Jiroft and Bam Universities of Medical Sciences. Material & Methods: In this semi experimental study, 40 operating room students in the fourth semester of the bachelor's program at Jiroft and Bam Universities of Medical Sciences participated. The students were randomly divided into control and intervention groups. The intervention involved utilizing the operating room simulation at the clinical skill center. The data were collected using the Clinical Skill and Teaching Satisfaction Questionnaires and analyzed using Analysis Of Covariance (ANCOVA). Results: The results of the study showed a significant increase in the skills and satisfaction of students in the intervention group, with respective scores of 87.82 ± 11.21 and 93.5 ± 14 compared to the control group scores of 53.94 ± 8.98 and 83.064 ± 9.69 (p < 0.001). The eta-squared (η) on the post-test revealed that 0.25 and 0.19 of the changes in the dependent variable were due to the independent variable (training in the simulated operating room). Conclusion: The study's results indicate that simulating operating rooms at clinical skill centers can contribute to improving surgical technologist students' skills and satisfaction. Therefore, the simulated operating room can be used as an effective and safe educational method to enhance operating room students' practical skills. |
