Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the satisfaction of students from the sixth semester of medical school on a simulation-based teaching curriculum in the specialty of Gynecology and Obstetrics (OB-GYN). Methods: Analytical observational type study with application of a questionnaire constructed to measure the satisfaction of these simulations. Data were initially aligned in Excel and then used in IBM-SPSS Statistics for exploratory data analysis and comparative analysis. Results: The study sample consisted of 68 students from the sixth to twelfth semester of medical school. The result was that the more advanced the semester, the greater the chance of indicating simulation. The most relevant relationship is evidenced in the variables in which the greater the gain in skills and clinical reasoning, the greater the chance of indicating simulation. Conclusion: It was concluded that the greater the student's perception of having improved their performance, the greater the chance of indicating the use of simulation in OB-GYN. This article is in accordance with the literature, where student satisfaction with simulation-based activities in gynecology and obstetrics is positive and promotes motivation to study. We emphasize the importance of gaining confidence in performance and satisfaction during simulation activities.
