简要总结
Providing training to nursing students in the field of pediatric care requires having the competencies to care for the pediatric population. However, as the margin of error in pediatric care is quite narrow, nursing students need to undertake a comprehensive laboratory practice before implementing their care skills unsupervised in the pediatric ward. Nursing students can develop their professional skills by gaining the necessary confidence and skills with simulation methods.
详细描述
Simulation makes possible for students to feel a pulse, observe chest movements, hear respiration sounds, measure blood pressure, and evaluate results, thus allowing students to practice with concrete examples of various conditions. Hence simulation-based training, one of the important learning techniques, is assumed to help nursing students overcome the difficulties they will experience in measuring the children's vital signs

研究组 & 干预措施
intervention
Students were trained about taking body temperature, heart rate and its characteristics, respiratory rate and saturation, blood pressure, and pain assessment in line with previously created cases on the NOELLE® Maternal Birthing Simulator with Advanced Resuscitation Neonatal M-W45111.
干预措施: simulation training (Other)
Control
Students were trained on how to measure the five vital signs, which tools to use and why, and normal and abnormal vital sign values by demonstration and explanation on a pediatric nursing manikin.
干预措施: Classical training (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Vital Signs Scale (V-Scale)
时间窗: It was assessed just before training as baseline. When all training was completed, ıt was assessed after 1 week again.
The scale, originally developed by Mok et al. in 2015, was further adapted to Turkish by Ertuğ (2018). The 5-point Likert-type scale consists of 16 items and 5 factors. The sub-scales are workload, technology, communication, knowledge and key indicators. The total score varies between 16 and 80. A low score indicates that nurses have a low attitude towards vital signs monitoring while a higher score indicates a positive attitude towards vital signs monitoring. T
次要结局
- Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale(When simulation based training was completed, ıt was assessed after 1 week.)
