Effects of Simulation-Based Training on the Clinical Competence and Confidence of Nursing Students in Intravenous Injection Performance and the Satisfaction of Clients

Abstract

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the effect of simulation-based training on the clinical competence and confidence of nursing students in intravenous injection performance and the satisfaction of clients. Methods: This study employed a randomized control posttest non-synchronized design. The participants were 90 second-year nursing students(31 multimedia group, 28 IV model group, 31 IV computerized systems group) of S-University in Seoul, Korea. Each group was given 30 minutes for five trial injections, then the students performed intravenous injections on the back of hands of the clients, and the results were measured. Results: There were significant differences in competence of clinical performance among the three groups showed no significant differences in confidence before and after intravenous injections. While there was no significant difference in the satisfaction of clients among the three groups, there were significant differences in the satisfaction of clients resulting from the success or failure of intravenous injections(p=<.001). Conclusion: This study shows that simulation-base training contributes to the enhancement of competence and confidence of nursing students in clinical performance. It would be helpful to use various simulation-based training media as another choice of education in different fields.

Development and evaluation of virtual reality simulation education based on coronavirus disease 2019 scenario for nursing students: A pilot study

“…There was no significant difference in clinical reasoning capacity in nursing care for respiratory infectious disease. The results are consistent with the study of Kang and Kang (2020). However, there was no statistically significant differences between two groups in this study.…”

Implementation and Evaluation of a Virtual Reality Simulation: Intravenous Injection Training System

“…The study is significant in the sense that it employed VRS for an IV injection training system, and it was applied as a substitution method to improve the nursing competency of nursing students by implementing a VR training system, wherein the environment was similar to that in a clinical setting. Most practicum training for IV catheter injection using VR involves using the VR-haptic IV simulator (VR simulator), and most studies compare the differences among the training groups using a VR simulator and IV arm simulator [16]. Training with the IV arm simulator was reported to be more effective as it allowed the students to learn skills, such as IV catheter insertion [8].…”

“…Training with the IV arm simulator was reported to be more effective as it allowed the students to learn skills, such as IV catheter insertion [8]. Conversely, some studies reported that the VR simulator was more effective for improving clinical practice competencies than the IV arm simulator [8,16]. A study that was conducted to address the limitation of such previous studies applied a combination of the two types of simulators and determined that the group using the combination of the two simulators had higher levels of clinical practice competencies than those who used each simulator individually [16].…”

This is a result that supports the research findings that blended learning improves the outcomes of nursing education [17].…”

A Study on the Quantitative Characteristics of Needle Force on the Acupuncture Practical Model

“…The lifting-thrusting range and frequency are set by software used, the motor moves the needle in to tissue model, and the sensor attached to the needle holder measures the needle-tissue interaction force. 진다 [1][2][3] . 특히 기초 실습이 부족한 경우 학생들의 불안감이 높다는 보고도 있어 4) , 체계적이고 표준화된 의학 실습 교육이 강조되고 있다.…”
