Simulation-based training can help nursing students improve their mental and physical healthcare knowledge and skills....
This study focused on two different simulation modalities and investigated whether they helped nursing students acquire knowledge and develop skills necessary to address the physical health problems o...
This is a mixed-method study....
This study was conducted in Turkey....
The sample consisted of 61 students divided into two experimental groups and one control group....
One experimental group participated in a clinical simulation scenario involving a standardized patient modality, while the other participated in a hybrid simulation modality (standardized patient and ...
The clinical simulation was statistically effective for students' skill development about physical health problems of psychiatric patients. Also, in the qualitative findings, the clinical simulation i...
Good communication between patients and practitioners is essential, especially during dental procedures, as these treatments are often associated with increased nervousness and anxiety. The aim of thi...
Students (n = 34) were assigned to four small groups receiving targeted training consisting of two parts. A lecture about the theoretical basics of communication skills and two practical sessions with...
The students rated the learning of communication skills as important for later professional life at all times. After targeted training followed by subsequent use in simulated patients, there was a sig...
The implementation of targeted training with subsequent use in simulated patients significantly contributed to the students' improvement in communication skills. The concept offers a good opportunity ...
The objectives were to evaluate the effectiveness of a standardised patient simulation programme and to analyse to what extent the students transferred the skills covered in the simulation to clinical...
A quasi-experimental study was carried out, with measurements taken pre-, post- and 6 months after the implementation of a standardised patient simulation programme in a single group....
Eligible to participate were all final year nursing undergraduates during the 2020-2021 academic year. In total, 41 undergraduate nursing students took part in all stages of the study. It was measured...
The students' scores for self-efficacy and perceived communication skills improved and were maintained after six months. Regarding to resilience, improvement was even evident six months following the ...
Simulation training is an ever-growing means of healthcare education and often involves simulated participants (SPs), commonly known as actors. Simulation-based education (SBE) can sometimes endanger ...
The checklist was provided to SPs working in an acute trust simulation service when delivering multidisciplinary SBE over 4 months. Using multiple plan–do–study–act cycles, the checklist was refined b...
The responses showed that 100% of SPs felt safe during SBE when using our checklist. The average “confidence in safety” rating before using the checklist was 6.8/10, which increased significantly to 9...
We recommend using our safety checklist as a standard operating procedure to improve the confidence and safety of SPs during safe and effective simulations....
While simulated patients (SPs) are considered a standard tool in communication skills training, there is no evidence thus far of their comparative benefit to the more cost-effective option of student ...
We retrospectively compared students who participated in the clinical communication course (CCC), based on student role playing (CCCsp-,...
Students after the CCC with simulated patients achieved a significantly higher score in the patient-practitioner orientation scale than other groups (...
There is a strong positive correlation between the implementation of simulated patients and patient-centred attitudes among students. Data from the FGI revealed that students perceived training with S...
Simulation in health-care professions has grown in the last few decades. We provide an overview of the history of simulation in other fields, the trajectory of simulation in health professions educati...
This study examined the effectiveness of simulation with a standardised patient on the perception of stigma associated with schizophrenia among undergraduate nursing students. It also assessed the rel...
A quasi-experimental study without a control group was conducted on a non-probabilistic sample. The simulation programme used a standardised patient portrayed by a nurse with mental health experience....
After simulation, statistically significant stigma improvements were found in six out of nine dimensions; anger and help obtained larger effect sizes (r = 0.392 and 0,307, respectively). Regarding gen...
Simulation with a standardised patient is an effective teaching tool for reducing the stigmatisation of people with schizophrenia, thus reducing people's perception of internal causal attribution. It ...
Concerns regarding the burden of inappropriate opioid use are growing. We examined the association between prescription opioid abuse and patient characteristics and estimated the cost-effectiveness of...
A retrospective cohort study was conducted to explore the association between opioid abuse and patient characteristics using the National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort (NHIS-NSC) dat...
We identified 22,524 patients with chronic opioid use in the NHIS-NSC database. Every one-year increase in age (hazard ratio: 1.002 [95% CI: 1.000-1.003]), medical aid program (1.130 [95% CI: 1.072-1....
Patient characteristics and history of opioid abuse affected the risk of opioid abuse. Considering patient-level information, the PDMP implemented in South Korea is likely to be cost-effective....
Simulation-based education has emerged as an effective approach in nursing education worldwide. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a surgical nursing education program based on a simulation usi...
A mixed-methods design with a quasi-experimental longitudinal approach and focus group interviews was employed. The data were collected from 130 third-year nursing students at three different time poi...
There were statistically significant differences in clinical surgical nursing competence (F = 8.68,...
Simulation-based learning provides a dynamic and immersive educational experience that enables undergraduate nursing students to develop and refine essential clinical skills while also fostering confi...
Female genital cutting is a culture bound ritual involving excision of the female genitalia. Little is known about nursing students' knowledge and perceptions of female genital cutting and no studies ...
The aim of this study was to examine the impact of a dramatization simulation on nursing students' knowledge about and perceptions of female genital cutting....
