SCAPE ROOM AS A SENSITIZATION AND EDUCATION STRATEGY ABOUT PRESSURE INJURY PREVENTION

Authors

Abstract

Objective: To report the experience of using the escape room as an educational and awareness strategy for the prevention of pressure injuries in the hospital context. Methods: This is an experience report about an activity developed in November 2021, with professionals from the multidisciplinary team of a large philanthropic hospital located in the metropolitan region of São Paulo (SP), Brazil. Results: The game was played as an educational strategy associated with other initiatives on the issue, during the annual pressure injury prevention campaign. Eighty-two professionals participated in the activity, including nurses, nursing technicians, nutritionists, and physiotherapists. A total of 57 participants (69.5%) managed to unravel the proposed puzzles and leave the escape room in the proposed time. The reaction evaluation showed a high level of satisfaction with the activity, in addition to numerous compliments on the chosen methodology, as well as the creativity in which the topic was approached and developed. Conclusion: The use of a methodology based on the interaction of the participants, such as escape rooms, associated with other educational activities seems to be interesting to promote learning and awareness about pressure injury prevention.
