BASIC LIFE SUPPORT: KNOWLEDGE ASSESSMENT CONSIDERING THE ARTICULATION OF ACTIVE TEACHING STRATEGIES

ABSTRACT Objective: to assess the effect of an educational intervention called “Basic Life Support with the use of the automated external defibrillator” on knowledge development in Nursing professionals, considering the articulation of active teaching and learning strategies. Method: a quasi-experimental intervention study, without a control group and of before-and-after type, carried out with 113 nurses working in the Urgency and Emergency Network of an inland city in the state of São Paulo, through a course presented between March and June 2019 on cardiopulmonary resuscitation with Basic Life Support and use of automated external defibrillator. Three active teaching and learning strategies were articulated: inverted classroom, video lesson, and clinical simulation. Knowledge was assessed by applying a pre- and post-test, and the paired t test was used for the analysis. Results: the best performance regarding knowledge development was presented by the nurses from the hospital area, identifying a mean of 11.90 points in the pre-test and of 16.9 points in the post-test. In general, better scores of knowledge regarding Basic Life Support were obtained, evidenced by statistically significant results, with a p-value<0.001. Conclusion: the articulation of the adopted strategies can enhance knowledge development in Nursing regarding Basic Life Support in adult patients, due to the emphasis on the development of critical thinking, the encouragement of clinical judgment, reflective discussion and active participation of individuals in their learning process, factors that positively impact on the acquisition of the individuals' cognitive ability/knowledge.
