ABSTRACT
Introduction:
The benefits of high-fidelity simulation in post-graduate studies are well documented. Despite the solid and extended implementation of this learning resource in undergraduate studies, this methodology is only recently beginning to be used with postgraduate midwifery students. It is necessary to evaluate this training using validated instruments to get knowledge about the learning process and experience of students exposed to high-fidelity simulation techniques.

Objectives:
To describe the experience of midwifery students in the training of obstetrics emergencies using clinical simulation-based learning.

Methods:
Observational Descriptive Study using the "Debriefing Experiencie Scale" (DES), in a sample of 15 first year midwifery students of a Multidisciplinary Obstetric and Gynecology Teaching unit. Four high-fidelity clinical simulation scenarios on shoulder dystocia, postpartum hemorrhage, eclampsia and CPR in pregnant women. were carried out.

Results:
The score obtained by dimensions were: D1 “Learning and making connections” an average of 4.81 (SD=0.391; D2.“Analysing ideas and feelings” an average of 4.71 (SD=0.439); D3. “The ability of the facilitator in directing the debriefing” an average of 4.59 (SD=0.398) and D4. “Appropriate guidance from the facilitator an average of 4.68 (SD=0.378). Over 90% of participants scored all items with a 4 o more (agree/strongly agree).

Conclusions:
High-fidelity simulation in midwifery training contributes to the learning and analysis processes needed in obstetric emergencies.
