Student and novice nurses are susceptible to committing medication errors related to lack of experience. To address medication safety, a quasi-experimental design (N = 120) was used to test the effect of adding simulation to an undergraduate nursing pharmacology course on students' confidence and competence, medication adverse events, and observed medication administration practices. Students who received simulation-enhanced pharmacology demonstrated important improvements in medication administration safety. Implementing simulation in nursing pharmacology curriculum is consistent with recommendations to implement Quality and Safety Education for Nurses competencies into nursing education.
学生护士和新手护士容易因缺乏经验而犯用药错误。为了解决用药安全问题,采用了一种准实验设计(N = 120)来测试在本科护理药理学课程中增加模拟教学对学生的信心和能力、用药不良事件以及观察到的用药操作的影响。接受模拟增强药理学教学的学生在用药安全方面有显著改善。在护理药理学课程中实施模拟教学符合将护士质量与安全教育能力标准纳入护理教育的建议。
