PURPOSE/AIMS: This study explored the feasibility of educating nurses on an emotionally sensitive topic using video. The aim was to educate nurses on how to assist individuals who have had an amputation of a limb in viewing themselves in the mirror.
One-group repeated-measures design with 2 time points (pretest and posttest at 1 month).
Nurses viewed a video in which 8 amputee actors described how and why nurses should support individuals' viewing of self in the mirror following amputation.
This video-based education was feasible, and recommendations were made for future research. Participants were engaged and shared insight into how this knowledge would change their nursing practice.
A larger educational research study to test the effect of this education on improving nursing confidence and offering the mirror is recommended.
目的/目标:本研究探讨了使用视频就一个情感敏感话题对护士进行教育的可行性。目的是教导护士如何协助肢体截肢者照镜子。
采用单组重复测量设计,有2个时间点(前测和1个月后的后测)。
护士观看了一段视频,视频中有8名截肢者演员描述了护士应该如何以及为何要支持截肢者照镜子。
这种基于视频的教育是可行的,并为未来的研究提出了建议。参与者积极参与,并分享了关于这些知识将如何改变他们护理实践的见解。
建议开展一项更大规模的教育研究,以测试这种教育对提高护理信心和提供镜子的效果。
