Brief Summary:
Vaginal abdominal and breast examinations are among the essential gynecological examination skills for midwifery students and are crucial steps that need to be learned However due to the privacy of genital areas there are some debates regarding the teaching of these skills Low-fidelity mannequins and models are particularly effective and cost-efficient in acquiring basic psychomotor skills Thus midwifery students can gain clinical experience make mistakes in a safe environment and enhance their skills The sample of this study consists of 64 midwifery students experimental32 control32 using a pre-test post-test design with an observational randomized controlled trial Data collection instruments include a Personal Information Form PIF Learners Guide LG Self-Confidence Scale SCS and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale SSSCLS In the experimental group after providing theoretical knowledge students will receive practical training on a gynecological examination model including bimanual examination vaginal examination with a speculum pap smear for cervical screening and pelvic palpation Each student will then perform the examination individually with approximately 15 minutes allocated per student Two weeks later the same students will be asked to perform all examination steps again During the examinations the researcher will mark complete and incomplete procedures in the learners guide and any deficiencies will be explained to the students for completion The CS and SSSLS will be administered for the post-test In the control group after theoretical knowledge is provided students will be shown visual and video demonstrations of the steps of a gynecological examination The PIF and SCS will be administered for the pre-test and two weeks later students will be asked to perform the examination steps in a laboratory setting followed by the post-test
Detailed Description:
Gynecological examination is an important step for womens health Early diagnosis treatment intervention and follow-up are the foundation of a healthy life Midwives play an important role in maintaining womens health especially in conducting detailed gynecological and obstetric evaluations They should receive quality theoretical education and improve their practices Practical training is important in learning especially in the health field where models and simulation applications play a significant role in clinical practices Therefore clinical examination skills are sometimes taught to students using different materials making it easier for students to learn medical knowledge and reducing the time spent on education The aim of this planned study is to improve midwifery students gynecological examination skills with model support
