Abstract

Background: The Covid-19 pandemic has caused students to be unable to learn medical skills directly using standard mannequins. This study intends to determine the effectiveness of using a substitute mannequin in implementing medical skills of the Samara Family elective block and other aspects that need to improve in the future. Methods: This study was observational research with a cross-sectional study design. Thestudy has received approval from the ethics commission. The subjects were 40 out of 59 students who took part in the Samara Family block at the Faculty of Medicine of Islamic University of Indonesia in 2020. The inclusion criteria were students who were willing to take part in the research by signing informed consent. This research was conducted by filling out questionnaires and in-depth interviews for selected students. The analysis is conducted using the Spearman SPSS correlation test. Results: In-depth interviews showed that students could carry out the learning of the Samara Family medical skills well and the medical activities did not need to be postponed because of the uncertainty of the pandemic end. Respondents stated that instructors were very helpful in the process of implementing medical skills. Although some respondents had to spend money to provide their own substitute mannequins, they said that they were satisfied with the results of the Samara Family medical skills test they obtained. However, the results of the analysis were not statistically significant (p> 0.05). Conclusion: The use of substitute mannequins is quite effective. The examination can be held in shift so that students do not wait for too long.
