Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Equipment and Supplies; Augmented Reality; Nurse's Role
• Interventions: Other: Traditional Guideline-based Self-Learning; Other: AR-based Training with Microsoft HoloLens 2®

• Registration Number: NCT06506851
• Lead Sponsor: Samsung Medical Center

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of AR-based training with traditional guideline-based self-learning in practical nurses without prior Level-1® experience. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does AR-based training using Microsoft HoloLens 2® improve clinical performance compared to traditional guideline-based self-learning? Does AR-based training affect self-efficacy and educational satisfaction compared to traditional methods?

Participants will:

Receive AR-based training using Microsoft HoloLens 2® (experimental group) Follow traditional guideline-based self-learning (control group) Researchers will compare the AR-based training group to the traditional self-learning group to see if AR-based training leads to better clinical performance, higher self-efficacy, and greater educational satisfaction.

Detailed Description

In critical situations like hypovolemic shock, nurses must master skills for using devices like the Level-1® rapid infusion system. However, limited exposure poses challenges. Augmented reality (AR) offers a solution by providing realistic practice scenarios. While AR has shown effectiveness in cardiopulmonary resuscitation and intubation education, its application in Level-1® training remains underexplored.

This study was conducted at the Samsung Medical Center in Seoul, Korea, and involved 42 practical nurses without prior Level-1® experience. Participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups: the experimental group, which received AR-based training using Microsoft HoloLens 2®, and the control group, which followed traditional guideline-based self-learning.

The study aimed to investigate the impact of AR-based Level-1® education on nurses' clinical performance, self-efficacy, and educational satisfaction. Clinical performance, self-efficacy, and educational satisfaction were assessed through structured measurements.

Results data and conclusions drawn from the data are excluded from this section and will be reported separately in the Results Section of the record.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Traditional Self-Learning Group	Traditional Guideline-based Self-Learning	Practical nurses in this arm follow traditional guideline-based self-learning methods without augmented reality technology. They rely on conventional educational materials and guidelines for learning device utilization skills.
AR-based Training Group	AR-based Training with Microsoft HoloLens 2®	Practical nurses in this arm receive AR-based training using Microsoft HoloLens 2®. This training method incorporates augmented reality technology to provide immersive and interactive learning experiences, enhancing their proficiency in device utilization.
