Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Advanced life support is crucial for medical students during their studies, examinations, and professional practice, serving as the foundation of their clinical skills. Scenario-based simulation training immerses students in realistic emergency scenarios, familiarizing them with equipment operation, fostering teamwork, and providing real-time feedback to mitigate clinical risks. Through scenario simulation, students encounter and manage authentic emergency situations within simulated clinical settings, thereby enhancing their skill proficiency and response capabilities. Intermittent training combined with deliberate practice helps medical students retain these skills and emergency knowledge over the long term. This study aims to investigate the impact of a teaching model integrating scenario simulation training with spaced practice, compared to traditional teaching methods, on medical students' long-term mastery of advanced life support theoretical knowledge and operational skills.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Interval Training Group

Conduct experiments on trainees who have mastered advanced life support theory and practical skills. The interval retraining group undergoes fixed-interval repeated training, performing the same 20-minute task daily on days 2, 4, and 6.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Interval retraining

Intervention Type OTHER

Through basic skills training and testing, confirm that all trainees have mastered the steps of adult external cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), tracheal intubation procedures, and the operational steps of automated external defibrillators (AEDs). And validated students' mastery of ECG interpretation for cardiac arrest and arrhythmias, along with pharmacology knowledge of cardiovascular emergency medications through assessment questions. The interval retraining group underwent fixed-interval repeated training, performing the same 20-minute tasks daily on days 2, 4, and 6.

Non-interval training group

Conduct experiments on trainees who have mastered advanced life support theory and practical skills. Compared to the experimental group, this group of trainees will not receive additional training during the following week.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Non-interval retraining

Intervention Type OTHER

Through basic skills training and testing, confirm that all trainees have mastered the steps of adult external cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), tracheal intubation procedures, and the operational steps of automated external defibrillators (AEDs). And validated students' mastery of ECG interpretation for cardiac arrest and arrhythmias, along with pharmacology knowledge of cardiovascular emergency medications through assessment questions. The non-interval retraining group will not engage in interval training during the following week.
