Immunisation Simulation Using the Real-size Infant Manikin in Medical Education
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This was a quasi-experimental study that comprised medical students in pediatric rotation at the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Indonesia, Jakarta. The investigators determined students' knowledge and practice improvement through simulation by using the real-size infant's arm and leg manikins; and evaluate the confidence in immunization after the simulation.

Experimental: Intervention group 70 minutes course using newly developed real-size infant's arm and leg manikin |
Other: Newly developed real-size infant's arm and leg manikin
The control group used conventional manikins made by Nasco; meanwhile, two newly designed real-size manikins were prepared for the intervention group: the right arm and right leg. Real-size manikins were developed based on the mean of anthropometric measurement of 50 Indonesian infants' arms and legs of healthy term neonates born in Dr Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. The manikins were made of Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) filament using three-dimensional (3D) printing technology. The manufacturing process was carried out by the Medical Physics Department, Universitas Indonesia.
