to describe the assembly of a low-cost paracentesis simulator and evaluate its effectiveness, acceptance and impact on the learning of medical students.
a paracentesis simulator was built using a mannequin and materials such as plastic bottles, Velcro, polyvinyl chloride sheets and silicone were used. A cross-sectional and experimental study was carried out with undergraduate medical students without previous practical experience with paracentesis, which sought to validate the model, evaluating its benefits in learning and obtaining technical skills.
after using the simulator there was an increase of 82.4% in the level of confidence in performing paracentesis in a patient, with 98% of respondents considering that the model fulfilled the simulator function with satisfaction, and 100% considering it useful as a teaching tool.
the built simulator was effective as an educational resource, serving as an alternative to high-cost commercial models, allowing for greater accessibility in the use of this tool in medical education.
描述一种低成本腹腔穿刺模拟器的组装方法，并评估其在医学学生学习中的效果、接受程度和影响。
使用人体模型和塑料瓶、魔术贴、聚氯乙烯片和硅酮等材料制作了一种腹腔穿刺模拟器。我们对没有腹腔穿刺实践经验的本科医学生进行了横断面和实验研究，旨在验证模型，并评估其在学习和获得技术技能方面的益处。
使用模拟器后，在患者身上进行腹腔穿刺的信心水平提高了 82.4%，98%的受访者对模型满足模拟器功能表示满意，100%的人认为它是一种有用的教学工具。
所构建的模拟器作为一种教育资源是有效的，可作为高成本商业模型的替代品，在医学教育中更便于使用该工具。
