simulation applications on the level of pressure injury knowledge and evaluation

Conditions: Pressure Injury

Summary: when the literature is examined, it is seen that the pressure injury knowledge and evaluation levels of nursing students are low. today, innovative approaches have started to be introduced to nursing education in proportion to the development of technology. simulation applications are also seen as one of these innovative approaches. in our study, it is aimed to examine the effect of pressure injury training to be given using high-reality standardized patient use and a medium-reality simulation model on the knowledge and evaluation level of intern nursing students. students (n = 250) will be assigned blindly to the experimental and control groups using a simple randomization method, and then pressure injury information and assessment trainings will be given to the experimental group with a medium-reality simulation model on a standardized patient for the control group for 4 weeks. after 2 weeks, the final test will be performed, and the data will be assigned to blind groups. it will be evaluated by the researcher.

according to the literature, it is seen that nursing students do not have sufficient knowledge about pressure injuries, and innovative applications are needed to improve their clinical skills. when the studies are examined, it is seen that the studies comparing standardized patient use and simulation application in pressure injury education for nursing students are very limited. in this context, it is seen that there is a need for studies in which the effectiveness of different simulation applications in learning pressure injury in nursing students is examined, and it is considered important to contribute to the literature with this study to be conducted. it is considered that the project has the potential to be published in internationally respected journals and presented at conferences. due to the increase in the number of students in nursing education and the lack of clinical areas, it is extremely important to practice in reality-like environments. in addition, students are required to acquire nursing psychomotor skills before meeting with a real patient. in this study, it is aimed to examine the effect of pressure injury teaching performed with standardized patients and a medium-reality simulation model on the knowledge and evaluation levels of nursing students. in this context, the hypothesis of the study is: h0: there is no difference between the knowledge and evaluation levels of pressure injury in nursing students of the teaching given using standardized patient and medium-reality simulation model applications. h1: there is a difference between the knowledge and evaluation levels of pressure injury in nursing students based on the teaching given using standardized patient and medium-reality simulation model applications. in this study, it is planned to provide two different types of simulation training aimed at improving the knowledge and evaluation levels of nursing students about pressure injuries. the use of simulation applications will increase the psychomotor skills of the student and increase the level of knowledge and evaluation without encountering the real patient. in addition, the standardized patient and medium-reality simulation model planned to be used in the study will provide many students with the opportunity to learn about pressure injuries without the need to train on patients in the hospital.
