ABSTRACT

Introduction: non-technical skills (NTS) are cognitive, social, and personal resource skills that enable the delivery of safe and high-quality health care, contributing to the development of clinical confidence and patient safety. Objectives: to develop a simulated clinical case in an interdisciplinary manner and to perform self-assessment of NTS in health care students using validated instruments. Material and methods: this descriptive study involved the development of a simulated clinical case of trauma care in an interdisciplinary manner, utilizing high-fidelity clinical simulation. The process was recorded on video, followed by a debriefing conducted with sound judgment. Subsequently, students performed self-assessment of NTS and team performance using the NOTECHS and Ottawa scales. Results: a total of 30 students were evaluated (Medicine [n = 20], Surgical Instrumentation [n = 10]). The highest scoring skills on the NOTECHS scale were cooperation and teamwork, while on the Ottawa scale, it was resource utilization. The lowest scoring skills were decision-making and situational awareness. Conclusions: the creation of interdisciplinary simulated scenarios appears to be useful for the self-assessment of non-technical skills in health care students. This approach may enhance the quality of patient care by reducing preventable medical errors.
