SIMULATION IN NURSING: PRODUCTION OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE GRADUATE COURSES IN BRAZIL FROM 2011 TO 2020

SIMULACIÓN EN ENFERMERÍA: PRODUCCIÓN DE CONOCIMIENTO EN LOS PROGRAMAS DE POSTGRADO EN BRASIL ENTRE 2011 Y 2020

ABSTRACT

Objective:

to synthesize the production of knowledge on simulation in Nursing generated by the Nursing graduate programs in Brazil between January 2011 and February 2020.

Method:

a documentary research study, which adopted as primary source the official documents of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Level personnel, conducted by means of an integrative literature review from October 2019 to February 2020, with quantitative analysis of the data.

Results:

initially, 68 studies were identified, 40 of them comprising the final sample. The following categories stood out: purpose of the studies; types of simulation; Health Care level; variables analyzed regarding the effectiveness of the simulation; themes addressed; comparison of the effectiveness of simulation with that of other teaching strategies, and weaknesses and potentialities of simulation. The scientific research of the Brazilian graduate courses prioritized the analysis of the effectiveness of simulation in the development of knowledge, satisfaction and confidence, in an off-site or virtual teaching environment, aimed both at hospital care and at primary care, mainly in Neonatology and Pediatrics, with the participants' anxiety as main weakness; and satisfaction, knowledge, critical thinking, safety, confidence and the ability to articulate theory and practice as potentialities.

Conclusion:

this study contributes to research, teaching and care in Nursing, for enabling the identification of the scientific production setting on simulation, which supports new research studies, with a focus on objectives and settings not yet explored. Simulation is indicated as an effective strategy for the development of cognitive, psychomotor and attitudinal skills in Nursing.
