An RANM. 2024;141(03): 201 - 208 We compared, using Mann Whitney-Wilcoxon test, the number of required attempts required for each student to reach the competence. We could not find differences (p=0,09). There is a trend that favors the placenta group. Finally, we analyzed the subjective evaluation survey given to the students, with scores from 0 to 10. The learning experience of the PVC technique with mannequins received a score equal to or greater than 7 in six students, obtaining the highest score (9-10) in three students. Learning PVC with the placental model obtained a rating higher than 7 in 100% of the students and the highest rating of 10, was given by eight students. The mean difficulty subjectively recorded by the students, when performing PVC in a mannequin was 6.8 and in the placenta was 3,9. Most of the students, after the study, considered themselves prepared for PVC in vivo with a mean score of 7,4. The useful- ness of the simulation models for learning the PVC technique received an average score of 9,2. Table 1.
