Intervention model description: Randomized control trial
Primary purpose: OTHER

Brief summary: The purpose of this study was to compare the learning performance of trainees before and after learning burns and scald nursing care by applying the burns and scald virtual reality (VR) training module multi-person interactive training in different places and the traditional training model with a high-fidelity patient.

Detailed description: The clinical instructors, standard practice nurses, training content, and assessment process were the same for the experimental and control groups, except for the training methods of the interventions. A pre-recorded instructional video on burn care was provided to each participant one week prior to the experiment for self-study. The experiment procedure includes research description, pre-test and pre-test questionnaire (about 10 minutes), VR hands-on teaching or environment familiarization phase (about 10 minutes), multi-person simulation training (about 15 minutes) and post-test debrief (about 5 minutes), post-test and questionnaire (about 10 minutes). After completing all experiments, the collected data will be analyzed by the researcher using SPSS version 22.0 for descriptive, t-test, and other statistical analyses.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. people who are above 20 years old, with a nurse practitioner certificate and an ACLS or AHA certificate within the validity period.
2. people who are interested in learning the role of a team leader in burn and scald care.
3. people who have never used an interactive virtual reality (VR) environment device.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. people who are prone to vertigo or poor balance and are prone to motion sickness.
2. people with a history of epilepsy.
3. eye surgery or injury within the past 6 months.
4. people with facial wounds that prevent them from wearing VR glasses.

Primary outcomes:
measure: Change in knowledge of burn and scald nursing care scale
timeFrame: Pre- and post-instructional design (immediately before conducting and after completing simulation scenario training)
measure: Change in motivation and attitude toward learning and personal self-efficacy scale
timeFrame: Pre- and post-instructional design (before conducting and immediately after completing simulation scenario training)
measure: Self-reported measure of satisfaction of learning
timeFrame: Post-instruction (immediately after completing simulation scenario training)
