Integración de la humanización en la formación de profesionales de salud a través de la simulación clínica
Una revisión de la literatura
Resumen
La automatización y estandarización en la atención de salud han generado preocupaciones sobre la deshumanización, afectando la confianza del paciente y el bienestar profesional. La humanización, que integra el enfoque técnico con el reconocimiento de la dignidad del paciente, es una prioridad en la formación en salud. En este contexto, la simulación clínica se ha consolidado como una herramienta pedagógica efectiva para desarrollar la empatía, la comunicación y otras competencias humanísticas en los estudiantes de profesiones sanitarias.
Esta revisión analiza la literatura sobre el uso de la simulación como herramienta para enseñar la humanización en salud, identificando estrategias clave y evaluando su impacto. Los hallazgos destacan que la inclusión de pacientes estandarizados, escenarios realistas y debriefing reflexivo mejoran la capacidad de los estudiantes para brindar atención centrada en la persona.
A pesar de que la simulación ha demostrado ser eficaz en la enseñanza de la empatía y la comunicación, aún persisten brechas en los estudios sobre su impacto a largo plazo y su aplicación en distintas disciplinas. Se recomienda integrar la humanización en los currículos de simulación y desarrollar métodos de evaluación estandarizados. Fomentar una cultura educativa centrada en la humanización es esencial para mejorar la calidad de la atención y la satisfacción de pacientes y profesionales.
