简要总结
This study aims to evaluate the effect of virtual simulation games on developing nursing students' knowledge, skills, confidence, and satisfaction levels regarding central venous catheter care and management. Nursing students will be included in the study, and participants will take part in a virtual simulation game-based training programme. Students' knowledge levels, clinical skills, confidence, and satisfaction with the training will be assessed before and after the training using valid measurement tools. The results obtained aim to reveal whether virtual simulation games are an effective and safe teaching method in nursing education. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of innovative teaching methods in nursing education.
详细描述
This study is a planned randomised controlled trial designed to evaluate the effect of virtual simulation game-based training on developing knowledge, clinical skills, confidence, and satisfaction levels regarding central venous catheter (CVC) care and management among nursing students. The study will be conducted with students enrolled in the university's nursing programme.
Participants will be included in a structured training programme using a virtual simulation game. The training content includes evidence-based practices in central venous catheter care, infection prevention approaches, and safe care steps. The virtual simulation game is designed to allow students to experience clinical decision-making, application sequence, and error awareness in a safe learning environment.
The data collection process in the study will be carried out in two stages: pre-training and post-training. Students' knowledge levels, clinical skills, self-confidence, and satisfaction with the training will be assessed using valid and reliable measurement tools. All assessments will be conducted to determine the effect of the intervention on learning outcomes.
It is anticipated that the findings from this study will provide evidence for the use of virtual simulation games as an effective teaching method in nursing education and contribute to enhancing student competence in central venous catheter care.

结局指标
主要结局
Central Venous Catheter Care Management Knowledge Level
时间窗: Before training (at the outset) and immediately after training is completed
The level of knowledge of nursing students regarding central venous catheter care management will be measured using a knowledge assessment test developed based on evidence-based guidelines and validated for validity and reliability. The measurement will be conducted comparatively before and after the training. Data will be analyzed using SPSS version 26.0. Descriptive statistics will be presented as frequencies and percentages for categorical variables and as mean ± standard deviation or median (minimum-maximum) for continuous variables, as appropriate. Normality will be assessed using skewness and kurtosis values. Baseline comparability between the intervention and control groups will be evaluated using the chi-square test. Changes in knowledge, skill performance, self-confidence, and satisfaction scores before and after the intervention will be analyzed using mixed-design two-way ANOVA, with additional within- and between-group comparisons conducted using appropriate parametric or n
次要结局
- Clinical Skill Level for Central Venous Catheter Care(Immediately after the training is completed)
