Sažetak
Background: By the end of their studies, medical students should be prepared for autonomous everyday work. That requires practical skills, knowledge and self-assurance in order to approach the patient. The aim of this study was to investigate the utilization of teaching with mannequins and HFMS as a tool in fulfilling these goals. Summary of work: Survey on students' experiences concerning their work on models and HFMS was distributed to medical students of fourth, fifth and sixth year (519) at the Faculties of Medicine in Osijek, Rijeka and Split. Summary of results: Most of the students (96%) during their studies have encountered work on models and HFMS (61%) and they found this type of learning is very useful (92%) for their future jobs but that hasn’t been used enough (92%). Students suggest numerous advantages of using models and HFMS ; as most important they suggest coping with fear of approaching a real patient. Conclusions: Students are aware of the importance of using models and HFMS in classes, but they also think this type of education isn`t used enough. Take-home messages: Students feel this type of education is very important because it helps them in gaining self-confidence, thus models and HFMS should be regularly used in medical teaching in Croatia.
