This education-focused study examined changes in nursing students' knowledge and attitudes towards responding to opioid-involved overdoses following participation in trainings delivered using remote learning modalities.
This pre-post study examined learning outcomes among 17 nursing students.
Participants completed the Opioid Overdose Attitude Scale and Opioid Overdose Knowledge Scale to assess attitudes and knowledge, respectively. Trainings were delivered to two separate groups, one via virtual reality immersive video and another over video conferencing.
Attitude scores increased by an average of 12.2 points and knowledge scores increased by 1.65 points. Within the virtual reality group, attitude scores increased by an average of 10 points, while no significant changes were observed in knowledge scores. The video conferencing group improved in both attitude and knowledge scores, by an average of 16.2 points and 2.1 points, respectively.
These hypothesis generating results illustrate the utility of remote learning approaches to deliver trainings, while maintaining social distance during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
本项以教育为重点的研究调查了护理学生在参与远程学习模式提供的培训后,对阿片类药物相关过量反应的知识和态度的变化。
本项前后测研究调查了 17 名护理学生的学习成果。
参与者完成了阿片类药物过量态度量表和阿片类药物过量知识量表,分别评估态度和知识。培训分两个独立的小组进行,一组通过虚拟现实沉浸式视频,另一组通过视频会议进行。
平均而言,态度得分提高了 12.2 分,知识得分提高了 1.65 分。在虚拟现实组中,态度得分平均提高了 10 分,而知识得分没有显著变化。视频会议组的态度和知识得分均有所提高,平均分别提高了 16.2 分和 2.1 分。
这些产生假设的结果表明,远程学习方法在新冠疫情期间能够在保持社交距离的同时,有效地提供培训。
