WEB TABANLI ELEKTROKARDİYOGRAFİ SİMÜLASYONU KULLANIMININ PARAMEDİK ÖĞRENCİLERİNİN RİTİM TANILAMA BECERİLERİNE ETKİSİ

Amaç: Bu çalışma web tabanlı elektrokardiyografi (EKG) simülasyonu kullanımının paramedik öğrencilerinin ritim tanılama becerisi üzerindeki etkisi belirlemek amacıyla yapıldı. Yöntem: Araştırma, 02.05.2021-01.09.2021 tarihleri arasında tek gruplu ön test-son test desenli çalışma olarak yürütüldü. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu Türkiye’de bir üniversitenin paramedik bölümünde son sınıfta öğrenim gören öğrenciler oluşturdu. Araştırmanın verileri bireyi tanıtıcı bilgi formu ve Temel EKG Ritimlerini Tanılama Formu kullanılarak yüz yüze toplandı. Katılımcılara 8 hafta boyunca haftada 3 saat olmak üzere online EKG eğitimi verildi. Eğitimi takiben bir ay sonra katılımcılara ön test uygulandı. Ön test sonrası katılımcılar bir web tabanlı EKG simülatörünü 4 hafta süresince kullandı. Dört hafta sonunda katılımcılara son test uygulandı. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin Temel EKG Ritimlerini Tanılama Formunda yer alan tüm ritimleri doğru tanılama oranlarının web tabanlı simülatör kullanımından sonra arttığı bulundu. Öğrencilerin ön test ve son test puanları arasında anlamlı düzeyde istatistiksel fark olduğu belirlendi (t:-7.476 p

THE EFFECT OF USING WEB-BASED ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHY SIMULATION ON RHYTHM DIAGNOSTIC SKILLS OF PARAMEDIC STUDENTS

Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effect of the use of web-based electrocardiography (ECG) simulation on paramedic students' rhythm diagnostic skills. Method: The study was conducted as a single-group pretest-posttest design study between 02.05.2021-01.09.2021. The study group of the research consisted of students studying in the last year in the paramedical department of a university in Turkey. The data of the study were collected person-to-person using the information form and the Basic ECG Rhythm Diagnosis Form. Participants were provided online ECG training for 3 hours per week over the course of 8 weeks. One month after the training, the participants were pre-tested. After the pretest, the participants used a web-based ECG simulator for 4 weeks. Posttest was applied to the participants at the end of four weeks. Results: It was found that the rate of correct diagnosis of all rhythms in the Diagnosis of Basic ECG Rhythms Form of the students increased after the use of a web-based simulator. It was determined that there was a significant statistical difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the students (t:-7.476, p
