To describe the development, implementation and evaluation of an undergraduate nursing simulation program for developing nursing students' competency in assessing, managing and reporting of patients with physiological deterioration.
A full-scale simulation program was developed and implemented in a pre-registered nursing curriculum. A randomized controlled study was performed with 31 third year nursing students. After a baseline evaluation of all participants in a simulated environment, the intervention group underwent four simulation scenarios in a 6h education session. All participants were then re-tested. The baseline and post-test simulation performances were scored using a validated tool. The students completed a survey to evaluate their learning experiences.
The clinical performances mean scores for assessment and management of deteriorating patients improved significantly after the training program compared to baseline scores (t=9.26; p<0.0001) and to post-test mean scores of the control group (F=77.28; p<0.0001). The post-test mean scores of the intervention group in reporting deterioration was significantly higher than the baseline mean scores (t=4.24; p<0.01) and the post-test means scores of the control group (F=8.98; p<0.01). The participants were satisfied with their simulation experiences, rated positively on features of the simulation and valued the program in developing their self-confidence.
The nursing students' competency in assessing, managing and reporting of deteriorating patient can be enhanced through a systematic development and implementation of a simulation-based educational program that utilized mnemonics to help students to remember key tasks.
描述一项本科护理模拟计划的开发、实施和评估,以培养护理学生评估、管理和报告生理恶化患者的能力。
在预先注册的护理课程中开发和实施了全面的模拟计划。对 31 名三年级护理学生进行了随机对照研究。在模拟环境中对所有参与者进行基线评估后,干预组在 6 小时的教育课程中进行了四个模拟场景。然后所有参与者都重新进行了测试。使用经过验证的工具对基线和测试后的模拟表现进行评分。学生们完成了一份调查问卷,以评估他们的学习体验。
与基线分数相比(t=9.26;p<0.0001)和与对照组的测试后平均分数相比(F=77.28;p<0.0001),在培训计划后,评估和管理恶化患者的临床表现平均分数显著提高。干预组在报告恶化方面的测试后平均分数明显高于基线平均分数(t=4.24;p<0.01)和对照组的测试后平均分数(F=8.98;p<0.01)。参与者对他们的模拟体验感到满意,对模拟的特点给予了积极的评价,并认为该计划在培养他们的自信心方面很有价值。
通过系统地开发和实施基于模拟的教育计划,并利用记忆技巧帮助学生记住关键任务,可以提高护理学生评估、管理和报告恶化患者的能力。
