Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study was to compare the performance of nursing undergraduates in dressing of tunneled central venous access in the simulator, according to the aid of a preceptorship or an auto-instructional guide.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The simulation facilitates the acquisition of knowledge, skills and decision-making required for clinical practice. Mentoring has been employed and valued as pedagogical process qualifier.

The hypothesis of this study was that students who trained with the assistance of a preceptorship had better practical performance when compared to students who used an auto-instructional guide.
