INTRODUCTION: The ability of physicians to perform endotracheal intubation by laryngoscope is oneof the essential skills. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the four‑steppython training method with the Halsted’s “See one, Do one, and Teach one” training method inendotracheal intubation competency in simulated environment.MATERIALS AND METHODS: This quasi‑experimental study was performed on two independentgroups with posttest. The statistical society consisted of eighth‑semester medical students referredto the emergency medicine unit. The experimental group received a modified four‑step python‘straining method that modified for small groups, and the control group received the Halsted’s “Seeone, Do one, and Teach one” training method. Researcher‑made checklist used to rate participantcompetency as posttest. Data were analyzed using SPSS 19 software.RESULTS: Sixty‑seven students volunteered for the experimental group and 57 students forthe control group. In posttest, the experimental group more competent than the control groupsignificantly (P < 0.001). Furthermore, the training course satisfaction of the experimental group wassignificantly higher than the control group (P < 0.001).DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: Modified python training method for small groups has showna better effect on student performance. This finding is consistent with previous researches.Modified four‑step python’s training for small group with an emphasis on peer to peer teaching andreceiving feedback from peer can be related to the effectiveness of this training. Further research isrecommended in other clinical education settings.
