Abstract: This study evaluated the effect of using high-fidelity mannequins combined with clinical case simulation through specialized software (D.A.R.T. Sim, SimMan, and Full Code) on the development of critical competencies in nursing students. A pretest was administered to 78 participants enrolled in Pediatric Nursing, Clinical Nursing, Maternal and Child Nursing, and Surgical Nursing courses. Baseline knowledge was assessed prior to implementing the program, focusing on cardiac arrhythmias, types of shock, Basic Life Support (BLS), and Advanced Life Support (ALS). Subsequently, an educational strategy based on problem-based learning was implemented using low- and high-complexity clinical cases. Six classroom sessions and six simulation laboratory sessions were conducted. Following the intervention, a posttest was administered. An average improvement of 40% in both practical and theoretical performance was observed. The results demonstrated that the technological tools employed (virtual and hands-on simulation) significantly enhanced competencies, clinical judgment, and decision-making in emergency situations. It is concluded that the systematic integration of this educational model into the nursing curriculum can strengthen practical training and improve the quality of care for critically ill patients. The findings from both the theoretical and practical components showed a 40% improvement in knowledge and critical thinking.
