Trial Outcomes & Findings for The Effect of Immediate Versus Delayed Debriefing on Basic Life Support Competence In Undergraduate Nursing Students. (NCT NCT06624449)
NCT ID: NCT06624449
Last Updated: 2024-11-29
Results Overview
Competence level was measured via the American Heart Association (2020) Basic Life Support competency checklist, which is a dichotomous rating scale of 0 (not done/done incorrectly) and 1 (done correctly); there was a total of 15 points. The higher the score, the better the outcome.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Immediately after the interventionThe Debriefing Experience Scale (DES) (Reed, 2012) was developed to assess nursing students debriefing experience. It included 20 elements in total and was split into four subscales: (1) Analyzing Thoughts and Feelings; (2) Learning and Makin Connections; (3) Facilitator Skill in Conducting the Debriefing; and (4) Appropriate Facilitator Guidance (Reed, 2012). A Likert scale ranges from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). The minimum score is 20 and the maximum is 100. The higher the score, the better the outcome.
