Opioid Overdose Simulation in Medical Student Education.

JMJames ManganoMSMatthew SarsfieldHCHannah Charland

Key Points

  • The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of high-fidelity simulation in teaching opioid overdose recognition and treatment to medical students.
  • Conducted high-fidelity simulations for opioid overdose scenarios
  • Medical students participated in training sessions
  • Assessed knowledge and confidence using pre- and post-simulation surveys
  • Participants demonstrated increased knowledge about opioid overdose recognition
  • Confidence in administering naloxone significantly improved after simulation
  • Positive feedback on the realistic patient-simulated experience
