                            <p>Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı paramedik öğrencilerine adli vaka ve delil yönetimi eğitimi vermek ve eğitimin öğrencilerin bilgi düzeyine etkisini değerlendirmektir. Yöntem: Çalışma ön test-son test yarı deneysel modelde tasarlanmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini 2023/2024 akademik yılında Türkiye’deki bir üniversitenin İlk ve Acil Yardım Programı 1. ve 2. sınıfında öğrenim gören 144 gönüllü paramedik öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Veriler, eğitimden önce ve sonra uygulanan bir anket formu kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Olay Yeri Adli Delil Yönetimi Eğitimi teorik bilgi ve vaka çalışmalarını içermektedir. Veriler SPSS 29.0 programı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin eğitim öncesi bilgi puan ortalaması 13.82 ± 3.55 iken, eğitim sonrasında bu puan 21.38 ± 2.13’e yükselmiştir. Eğitim öncesi ve sonrası bilgi puanları arasındaki fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlıdır. Eğitim sonrasında öğrencilerin adli vaka olarak rapor edilmesi gereken durumları doğru tespit etme oranı %88,9’dan %99,3’e yükselmiştir. Olay yerinde delil olarak değerlendirilebilecek bulguları doğru tespit etme oranı ise eğitim sonrasında %100’e ulaşmıştır. Eğitim, öğrencilerin ateşli silah yaralanmaları, ası vakaları ve cinsel istismar vakalarında adli delil yönetimi konusundaki bilgi düzeylerini önemli ölçüde artırmıştır.Sonuç: Özellikle ateşli silah yaralanmaları, asılma ve cinsel saldırı vakaları gibi spesifik adli vakalarda bilgi düzeyindeki artış dikkat çekicidir. Bu durum, bu tür eğitimlerin paramediklerin adli vakalara daha doğru ve bilinçli bir şekilde müdahale etmelerini sağlayacağını göstermektedir.</p></trans-abstract>

Methods: The study was designed as a pretest/posttest quasi-experimental model. The study sample consisted of 144 volunteer paramedic students studying in the 1st and 2nd year of the First and Emergency Aid Program of a university in Turkey in the 2023/2024 academic year. Data were collected using a questionnaire form administered before and after the training. Crime Scene Forensic Evidence Management Training includes theoretical knowledge and case studies. Data were analyzed using the SPSS 29.0 program. Results: The mean knowledge score of the students before the training was 13.82 ± 3.55, while this score increased to 21.38 ± 2.13 after the training. The difference between pre-and post-training knowledge scores was statistically significant. After the training, the rate of students correctly identifying situations that should be reported as forensic cases increased from 88.9% to 99.3%. The rate of correctly identifying the findings that can be considered as evidence at the crime scene reached 100% after the training. The training significantly increased the students’ level of knowledge on forensic evidence management in cases of gunshot injuries, hanging, and sexual abuse.Conclusion: The increase in the level of knowledge in specific forensic cases, such as gunshot injuries, hangings, and sexual assault, is particularly noteworthy. This situation suggests that this typ of training may enable paramedics to intervene in forensic cases more accurately and consciously.</p></abstract>
