ILLESCA PRETTY, Mónica et al. Clinical Simulation: nursing student´s opinions, Autonomous University of Chile, Temuco. Enfermería (Montevideo) [online]. 2019, vol.8, n.2, pp.51-65.  Epub 01-Dic-2019. ISSN 1688-8375.  https://doi.org/10.22235/ech.v8i2.1845.

The clinical simulation integrates the complexity of practical-theoretical learning with the possibility of repetition, feedback, evaluation and reflection to achieve disciplinary and generic competences of the learner. The goal is to reveal the opinion of nursing students about the use of clinical simulation as a learning strategy. It is an exploratory and descriptive qualitative research, through intrinsic case study, non-probabilistic, intentional sample of cases by criteria and convenience, made up of 15 informants in 2016. The information was collected through focus groups, analyzed by data reduction in three levels, using the constant comparison scheme, not grouping them into predetermined categories, by inductive reasoning process, validated with criteria of rigor and triangulation of researchers. In the first level 320 units of meaning emerged, grouped in six descriptive categories. In the second level there are three metacategories, in the third level there are two qualitative domains: contributions of students for the implementation of Clinical Simulation, and its contribution as a learning strategy in the development of disciplinary and generic competences. The conclusion is that this methodology reduces the existing gap between theory and practice, strengthens generic competences and allows the student to take responsibility for their training.
