Brief Summary

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

The goal of this study was to compare two different simulation applications in developing the positioning skill, one of the most common nursing practices, and the communication skill, which forms the basis of nursing practices.

Comparing to Effect Two Simulation Models

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

The population of the study consisted of 112 second-semester nursing students who took the "Nursing Fundamentals" course in the spring semester of the 2021-2022 academic year, and the sample included volunteers who took the course for the first time. A power analysis was performed on the G\*Power (v3.1.7) software to determine the sample size. The power of a study is expressed as 1-β (β = probability of type II error), and in general, studies should have 80% power. According to Cohen's effect size coefficients, assuming that the evaluations between two independent groups would have a large effect size (d = 0.8), the sample size was calculated as 60 subjects. Students were randomly assigned to groups using computer software.

Participants

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Intervention

The students involved in the intervention group were divided into subgroups, and the simulation was carried out using standardized patients. Each subgroup consisted of two students. Students were asked to practice supine and lateral recumbent positions in each scenario.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Standard patient simulation model

Intervention Type OTHER

Nursing students were trained with a standard patient simulation model for position and communication skills education.

Control

The students in the control group were divided into subgroups and practised the supine position and the lateral recumbent position with a high-fidelity manikin. Each subgroup consisted of two students. The applications lasted 5-10 minutes for each group, and after the applications, the debriefing phase was conducted, which lasted 20 minutes.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
