Human anatomy is a core subject that students of all health degrees are required to pass. Practical classes with human cadavers are a widely used educational resource in medicine, but are less frequent in other health degrees. Determining how first-year podiatry, nursing, and physiotherapy students cope with human anatomy practical classes and identifying the presence of physical reactions and possible causes of distress they experience in the dissection room are essential steps in designing a guidance plan to address students’ needs.
A questionnaire was distributed to 172 first-year students in non-medical health degrees immediately after their first visit to the dissection room. The questionnaire comprised 29 Yes/No questions to determine students’ physical reactions, causes of distress and coping methods.
The most frequent physical reactions were disgust, uneasiness and nausea. The main causes of distress were the smell of the cadavers, the smell of the dissection room and the sight of the cadavers. The coping methods used were being with friends, eating before the practical class and practicing beforehand with anatomical atlases and CDs. No significant differences were found between gender and the three variables analyzed (number of physical reactions, number of causes of distress and number of coping methods) (p-value >0.216), although differences were found between the type of health degree and the number of physical reactions and causes of distress (p-values = 0.028 and 0.001, respectively).

解剖室卫生专业一年级学生:对实践课的适应分析
人体解剖学是所有健康学位的学生都必须通过的核心科目。人体尸体实践课程是医学领域广泛使用的教育资源,但在其他健康学位中较少见。确定一年级足病学、护理学和物理治疗学学生如何应对人体解剖学实践课程,并确定他们在解剖室中遇到的身体反应和可能的痛苦原因,是设计满足学生需求的指导计划的重要步骤。
在他们第一次访问解剖室后立即向 172 名非医学健康学位的一年级学生分发了一份问卷。问卷包括 29 个是/否问题,以确定学生的身体反应、痛苦的原因和应对方法。
最常见的身体反应是厌恶、不安和恶心。造成痛苦的主要原因是尸体的气味、解剖室的气味和尸体的景象。所用的应对方法是和朋友在一起,在实践课之前吃饭,事先用解剖图谱和CD练习。性别和分析的三个变量(身体反应的数量、痛苦的原因的数量和应对方法的数量)之间没有发现显着差异(p 值 >0.216),尽管健康程度类型和数量之间存在差异身体反应和痛苦的原因(分别为 p 值 = 0.028 和 0.001)。
