Book The Effect of an Interactive Computer Simulation Video on Clinical Judgment

Download or read book The Effect of an Interactive Computer Simulation Video on Clinical Judgment written by Japonica Morris and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simulation has been identified as an effective approach for preparing nursing students to transition from theory to practice. It is widely accepted that high-fidelity patient simulation has a positive impact on student learning and decision-making abilities. Computer-based simulation may be an effective alternative to the high cost of high-fidelity patient simulators. The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to examine if the use of an interactive computer simulation video had an impact on the clinical judgment of undergraduate nursing students. This study also examined whether there was a relationship between students' demographic and academic characteristics and their clinical judgment scores. A sample of 50 community college associate degree nursing students participated in this study. The students were placed into experimental (N=18) and control (N=32) groups. An interactive computer-simulation video was the intervention used for the experimental group. An independent samples t test was conducted to compare group findings. All participants completed a demographic/academic form including age, GPA, current working hours, and previous degrees to examine if a relationship existed between demographic and academic variables and clinical judgment scores as measured by the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric. The study found no significant differences in clinical judgment scores between students who used the interactive computer-simulation video and those who did not. The study also did not find any relationship between student demographic and academic variables and clinical judgment scores.

Book The Effect of a Simulation Experience on Student Perception of Self Confidence

Download or read book The Effect of a Simulation Experience on Student Perception of Self Confidence written by Ginny N. Little and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim is to determine if participation in a high-fidelity simulation increases student levels of self-confidence. Thirty-eight first year associate degree nursing students enrolled in a medical-surgical course in a southeastern community college participated in a diabetes simulation as part of their course. Students then voluntarily completed a survey indicating self-confidence following the simulation. Descriptive statistics were used to determine the overall mean of student responses to each question on the National League for Nursing (NLN) Student Satisfaction and Self Confidence in Learning Tool. Students rated the teaching helpful and effective with a mean score of 4.47 (sd = .951). Students indicated that simulation materials used were motivating and helped with learning with a mean score of 4.53 (sd = .862). Participants indicated confidence in mastery of simulation content with a mean score of 3.63 (sd = 1.172). Participants rated confidence in development of skills and knowledge attainment with a mean score of 4.11 (sd = 1.06). Students rated knowledge of how to use simulation activities to learn nursing skills with a mean score of 4.18 (sd = .955). The study suggested confidence in mastery of skills and content covered and perception of simulation as helpful and effective occur concurrently following the simulation experience. Data analysis indicated student's knowledge of application of simulation activities and confidence in the development of needed skills from the simulation occur mutually.

Book Impact of Simulation on Nurses  Self confidence

Download or read book Impact of Simulation on Nurses Self confidence written by Denise Ewens Indermuehle and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ever changing health care environment of today requires competent staff who can care for the patients' consistently changing condition. Simulation is important to nurse clinical educators as an alternate method to provide experiences, which assimilate, expand, and enhance one's clinical competence. The problem statement of this Direct Practice Improvement (DPI) project was the following: It was not known the full effects of simulation on the self-confidence of registered nurses in high-risk situations and non-routine events. The purpose of this quantitative project was to explore the effect of a non-routine event or high risk situation simulation on paired self-confidence ratings among practicing registered nurses. The clinical question was the following: Was there a significant increase in self-confidence ratings from pre-simulation to post-simulation of a non-routine event or high-risk situation among practicing registered nurses? The theoretical foundation for this project incorporated Benner's theory of stages, Oermann's Skills for Retention, and Tanner's clinical judgment model for the development of self-confidence. The design of this DPI project was a pre- and post- survey. A paired t-test was used to analyze the data. The population was 64 registered nurses who self-enrolled for an American Heart Association class, using simulation at a private health care college. This college is a private health care college that provides continuing education classes for nurses. The results of this scholarly project determined by a positive paired t-test of between -2.88 and -4.26 that there was a statistically significant difference in the registered nurses self-reported self-confidence ratings after participating in a non-routine or high risk simulation.

Book The Effect of Virtual Patient Simulations on Student Learning Outcomes in an Associate of Science Medical surgical Nursing Course

Download or read book The Effect of Virtual Patient Simulations on Student Learning Outcomes in an Associate of Science Medical surgical Nursing Course written by Bobby Jean Musgrove and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine what the effects of virtual patient simulation instruction are on the learning outcomes of students in an Associate of Science medical-surgical nursing education course. Using a causal-comparative design, this study fills a gap in the literature and adds to the body of knowledge of this instructional strategy to bridge theory to practice in the classroom. Data were acquired from the HESI Exit ExaminationTM, which is administered the last semester of the nursing program. Data were collected for the Summer 2014 through Spring 2016 academic semesters. Additionally, data were acquired from the HESI Mid-Curricular ExamTM during the Summer 2014 through Spring 2015 academic semesters prior to entering the 2nd year of nursing. A post-course "satisfaction with current learning" subsection of the Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning survey was administered to assess student satisfaction with the virtual patient simulation. Participants were undergraduate 2nd-year medical-surgical nursing students at one rural public community college. Test scores were collected for students for the 6 semesters from Summer 2014 to Spring 2016. Students who took the course during Fall 2015 and Spring 2016 also completed the satisfaction survey. To be included in the study, students had a grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 or greater in nursing coursework, and had not failed out of the nursing program or the medical-surgical nursing course. Findings revealed no differences between students who received traditional instruction and virtual patient simulation instruction. Satisfaction with the virtual patient simulation instruction was mixed, with the Fall 2015 group being undecided and the Spring 2016 group being satisfied based upon the 5-point Likert-type survey. These results support the hypothesis that virtual patient simulation is comparable to traditional instruction. This study provides evidence that virtual patient simulation is as good as traditional clinical instruction in achieving the student learning outcomes in an associate of science in medical-surgical nursing course.

Book Utilizing Early Simulation to Increase Clinical Confidence in Novice Nursing Students

Download or read book Utilizing Early Simulation to Increase Clinical Confidence in Novice Nursing Students written by Dana Robinson Martin and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project was to determine if early simulation would increase the clinical confidence of novice nursing students. A convenience sample of 20 junior nursing students in their first semester of a baccalaureate nursing program within a small, rural university participated in the project prior to their first clinical experience. The students were administered the Confidence Scale as a pre-test prior to the early simulation experience which consisted of a scenario comparable to what the students would experience in the clinical setting. After the simulation, the primary investigator facilitated a debriefing exercise and then administered the Confidence Scale again as a post-test, as well as the Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Instrument to determine confidence levels after the simulation. A paired samples t test was performed to evaluate the change in confidence levels after the early simulation intervention. The results indicated that there was a statistically significant improvement in confidence scores after the simulation for each of the five questions on the Confidence Scale. The Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning instrument results also demonstrated high levels of satisfaction and confidence after the early simulation experience. Linear regression was implemented to determine relationships between the demographic information and the changes in the pre-test and post-test confidence levels. A statistically significant relationship was found between the Confidence Scale question related to confidence in portraying competence in front of an observer and employment as a home health CNA. Another statistically significant relationship was found between the Confidence Scale question related to confidence in task performance and employment as a long term care CNA.
