paralysis
The bed bath is a procedure performed by the nursing team and is considered essential for the recovery of patients. It is indicated for bedridden individuals in permanent conditions, such as paralysis; or temporary, such as some surgeries or illnessesWhen not performed in a safe and adequate manner, the bed bath procedure puts the patient’s physical integrity at risk, and may cause: accidents due to falls, accidental removal of devices, infectionsThe knowledge of the technique and the necessary skills to perform nursing procedures are taught from the undergraduate course. For some years, universities have been implementing new active teaching strategies, such as clinical simulation, which help in the development of clinical reasoning and in the training of technical skills, which contributes both to the safety of patients and future professionalsThe simulation allows the partial or total reproduction of a real clinical situation in a safe and controlled environment; its application is related, in general, to practical activities that involve decision-making or skills training in certain proceduresThe use of video is effective in acquiring cognitive capacity, improving retention of information and skills and can add satisfaction and self-confidence in learningSatisfied and self-confident students become more motivated to learn and tend to better master the contents and clinical skills taught to them; consequently, they become more capable of executing what they have learned in clinical practiceIn this sense, it is essential to identify teaching tools that increase these perceptions, because, in the literature, there is still a lack of studies that compared satisfaction and self-confidence in learning between different teaching strategies
