Effects of sequential clinical simulation throughout a degree in Medicine on students' clinical competency profile on graduation
- Students in the clinical years at Francisco de Vitoria University participated in multiple simulation exercises throughout the 2022-2023 academic year to evaluate their competency development prior to graduation.
- This simulation program was designed to improve clinical reasoning by fostering the integration of knowledge and abilities related to patient history taking, clinical examination, and interpersonal communication among fourth- and fifth-year medical students.
- Students participated in eight scenarios per year, with analyses focusing on the 3rd, 6th, and 8th simulations which revealed progressive improvements across assessed competencies.
- Scores for medical history, physical examination, and communication increased as students advanced through scenarios and years, showing greater gains in fifth-year students than in fourth-year peers.
- The results suggest that sequential simulation improves clinical skills, but further research is needed to confirm these benefits before wider curriculum adoption.
