Overview of Knowledge of Anesthesiology Nursing Students Regarding Pre-Post Clinical Practice Anesthesia Machine Preparation

Abstract

Introduction: Lack of mastery of tools and negligence in checking machine function are the most common causes. This accident accounts for 2% of cases in the American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) Close Claim Project Database. As one of the universities that has an Anesthesiology Nursing study program that is committed to meeting both national and international competencies, before practicing at Harapan Bangsa University, there is a laboratory learning evaluation using the OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination) method. However, from the evaluation score, 34 out of 89 with a presentation of 38.2% of students had not passed the preparation and use of anesthesia machine phase. This is a concern where the ability to use machines is a must-have.
