An interventional study of Conventional versus simulation manikin training in War-Related Injuries, sponsored by Czech Technical University in Prague. Enrolling by invitation at 1 site in Czechia. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-02-28.
Sponsored by Czech Technical University in Prague · Not applicable, Interventional, and Health services research
The aim of the study is to verify the applicability of simulation manikin in combat training of military medics. The research will be conducted on healthy volunteers - medics of the Czech Armed Forces, as a part of the compulsory medical courses required for foreign military missions as a "Combat Life Saver". Comparison of the performance of two groups of course participants who were trained using the standard approach versus experiential learning using simulation manikins.
With the development of modern hi-tech manikins and their growing popularity in the training of "civilian" medics, the possibilities of their application in the training of military medics are emerging. The aim of the study is to verify the applicability of simulation manikin in combat training of military medics. The research will be conducted on healthy volunteers - medics of the Czech Armed Forces, as a part of the compulsory medical courses required for foreign military missions as a "Combat Life Saver". Comparison of the performance of two groups of course participants who were trained using the standard approach versus experiential learning using simulation manikins. In addition to monitoring the particular professional performance of the trainees, changes in basic physiological functions, including the endocrinological response to stress conditions, will be evaluated.
