Recurso educativo y aprendizaje del manejo de vía aérea dirigido a estudiantes de medicina de la Universidad Nacional de Loja

Simulation is an extremely valuable resource in the field of Medical Sciences, being effective both for educational and evaluative purposes. It involves placing the student within a context that attempts to approximate reality, simulating situations in which he/she must face healthy or sick individuals. At present, it is an extremely important resource in the curriculum of a health professional, and has become part of the evaluations used in some countries to grant the Medical License, it has also been widely used in airway training processes, being a necessary technique for general analgesia, and an essential measure for the treatment of critical patients in the emergency department or ICU, but despite this, endotracheal intubation failure occurs in the first attempt in up to 20% and is associated with an increased risk of severe hypoxemia, cardiac arrest and death. For this reason, a qualitative-quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional research was developed with the objective of creating educational resources for learning airway management in simulation aimed at students of Medicine at the National University of Loja, based on a teaching practice guide and a video as educational resources, which were disseminated to students in a practical workshop, after which the Objective Structured Clinical Evaluation was applied, The result was that 44.68% (21 students) obtained a grade of outstanding (10 points) to insufficient (6.88), 9.44% (16 students) with very good and only 6.38% (3 students) obtained a grade of insufficient or failed the exam, which means that more than 75% of the participants passed and mastered the knowledge about the correct technique of endotracheal intubation. The development, implementation and dissemination of educational resources is a new teaching-learning method that breaks with traditional standards, facilitating and improving the quality of education in students and future health professionals
