Simulação como metodologia ativa para a educação dos estudantes em enfermagem: revisão integrativa

Problem: Simulation has been required and stimulated in training courses as a teaching-learning methodology capable of positively interfering in the learning process. Justification: Its use facilitates the acquisition of skills for systematic and quality patient care. Aim: identify the knowledge produced and published about the types of simulations used as an active methodology, with nursing students for the teaching of pressure lesion (PL) evaluation. Method: Study of the integrative literature review type. Results: Although there are few studies on the subject, they showed that Brazil appears as a leader in clinical research publications on nursing education in PL evaluation, using simulation as an active methodology. Conclusion: educational institutions should encourage research to produce new strategies or enhance what already exists in the scientific community, generating an impact on nursing practice and care.
