Critical thinking, nursing process, quality and safety measures, and standardized RN exit examination scores were compared between students (n = 144) placed in a dedicated education unit (DEU) and those in a traditional clinical model. Standardized test scores showed that differences between the clinical groups were not statistically significant. This study shows that the DEU model is 1 approach to clinical education that can enhance students' academic outcomes.
对安置在专门教育单元（DEU）的学生（n = 144）和采用传统临床模式的学生进行了批判性思维、护理程序、质量与安全措施以及标准化注册护士结业考试成绩的比较。标准化考试成绩表明，临床组之间的差异无统计学意义。本研究表明，DEU模式是一种可提高学生学业成绩的临床教育方法。
