BACKGROUND Simulation is an essential tool in modern medical education. The object of this study was to assess, in cost-effective measures, the introduction of new generation simulators in an adult life support (ALS) education program. METHODS Two hundred fifty primary care physicians and nurses were admitted to ten ALS courses (25 students per course). Students were distributed at random in two groups (125 each). Group A candidates were trained and tested with standard ALS manikins and Group B ones with new generation emergency and life support integrated simulator systems. RESULTS In group A, 98 (78%) candidates passed the course, compared with 110 (88%) in group B (p < 0.01). The total cost of conventional courses was euro 7689 per course and the cost of the advanced simulator courses was euro 29034 per course (p < 0.001). Cost per passed student was euro 392 in group A and euro 1320 in group B (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Although ALS advanced simulator systems may slightly increase the rate of students who pass the course, the cost-effectiveness of ALS courses with standard manikins is clearly superior.

基于高级模拟器与传统人体模型的比较,对高级生命支持 (ALS) 课程进行成本效益评估。



背景技术模拟是现代医学教育中必不可少的工具。本研究的目的是通过经济有效的措施评估在成人生命支持 (ALS) 教育计划中引入新一代模拟器的情况。方法 250 名初级保健医生和护士被录取参加 10 门 ALS 课程(每门课程 25 名学生)。学生被随机分为两组(每组 125 人)。 A 组候选人使用标准 ALS 模型进行培训和测试,B 组候选人使用新一代紧急和生命支持集成模拟器系统进行培训和测试。结果 A 组中有 98 名考生 (78%) 通过了课程,而 B 组中有 110 名考生 (88%) 通过了课程 (p < 0.01)。常规课程的总费用为每门课程 7689 欧元,高级模拟器课程的费用为每门课程 29034 欧元 (p < 0.001)。 A 组每位通过考试的学生的费用为 392 欧元,B 组为 1320 欧元(p < 0.001)。结论 虽然 ALS 高级模拟器系统可能会稍微提高学生的通过课程率,但使用标准人体模型的 ALS 课程的成本效益显然更优越。
