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.

Download or read book The Effect of Multiple patient Simulation on Baccalaureate Nursing Students Perceptions of Readiness to Provide Care written by Charlie Dharmasukrit and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the intricacies of delivering nursing care to an increasingly complex patient population, new graduate nurses must be prepared to provide competent nursing care with sound clinical judgment in order to ensure patient safety and promote positive patient outcomes. Therefore, refinement of nursing education to improve registered nurse (RN) competency and readiness to provide care in clinical practice should be a key initiative. The use of patient simulators is an effective teaching strategy because it allows for practice of clinical and communication skills and standardization of patient care experiences. Despite RNs being responsible for multiple patients in the clinical setting, research on the use of multiple-patient simulation to teach undergraduate nursing skills and concepts is very limited. The purpose of this study was to explore how multiple-patient simulation relates to Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students' perception of their readiness to care for multiple patients in the clinical environment. Using a qualitative approach, the researcher facilitated a multiple-patient simulation experience and followed the experience with a semi-structured interview of nine senior-level undergraduate BSN students at a Northern California university. Content analysis of the interview responses indicated that students found the simulation experience promoted their perception of readiness to care for multiple patients in the clinical setting. As clinical practice becomes increasingly complex, multiple-patient simulation is a promising modality to adopt in nursing education to assist in the transition of nursing students into successful practicing nurses.

Download or read book Virtual Standardized Patient VSP Simulation written by and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Claremont Graduate University and San Diego State University: 2018 Nurses serve a valuable role in the healthcare industry. Nurses are trained to have knowledge and skills for a fast-paced, evolving environment. In order to meet the needs of complex and diverse patients, nurses must be able to assess patients and prioritize care to produce safe and quality outcomes. This quantitative study framed in Benner’s Novice to Expert Theory and the National League for Nursing Jeffries Simulation Theory involved undergraduate baccalaureate nursing students from a California State University. The study examined differences in teaching methodologies regarding a low-frequency, high risk patient scenario. Survey responses from 161 participants provided opportunities to identify relationships between various teaching methodologies and nursing student knowledge and skill after a virtual standardized patient (VSP) anaphylaxis simulation. Participating students represented three levels of undergraduate nursing classes. Level one nursing students (Nursing Fundamentals) were familiar with reading case studies but had no formal clinical experience (n = 65). Level two nursing students (Medical-Surgical I) consisted of students with basic clinical experience (n = 60). Level three nursing students (Medical-Surgical II) consisted of students with extensive clinical experience (n = 36). Each willing participant was randomly assigned to a VSP anaphylaxis simulation research group that was delivered by three different teaching methods. Research group one consisted of a video simulation via traditional two-dimensional video plus a written case study (n= 54). Research group two consisted of a three-dimensional, mixed reality VSP simulation via the Microsoft HoloLens® (n = 53). Research group three consisted of a written case study (n =54). Participating students from within the three levels of nursing courses were stratified and randomly assigned to a research group. All students participating in the study received written instructions and an unfolding case study regarding the life threatening disorder of anaphylaxis. Following three observation periods, students were asked a series of knowledge and skill measures. The study participants were largely 19 to 20 years of age, had no previous clinical experience (67.1%), no combined previous immersive simulation experience (60.9%), and varying hours of nursing simulation experience. Correlational statistics showed evidence of a relationship between student knowledge and differences in teaching modalities. A one-way Analysis of Covariance revealed that video instruction provided the most knowledge gained (M= .96) compared to written case study (M = .95), and Microsoft HoloLensÒ. Correlational statistics showed evidence of a relationship between student skill and differences in teaching modalities. A one-way Analysis of Covariance revealed that video instruction provided the most skill (M = .78) compared to the Microsoft HoloLensÒ (M = .69), and written case study (M = .61). Regarding the Microsoft HoloLensÒ group, when looking at overall knowledge, Level 2 (Medical-Surgical I) is the only variable that entered the Stepwise regression model. Regarding the Microsoft HoloLensÒ group, when looking at overall skill, Level 1 (Nursing Fundamentals) is the only variable that entered the Stepwise regression model. The study’s findings showcase the importance of considering which type of teaching modality will provide students an opportunity to gain knowledge and skill when presented with a life-threatening patient scenario. This study suggested video instruction plus a written case study was the teaching modality that provided the most knowledge and skill gained among undergraduate nursing students. These results have significant research, practice, and policy implications for nursing school faculty and administration. In addition, the findings have heuristic value for other healthcare profession educators wishing to use emerging technologies for low-frequency, high-risk scenarios through the use of a virtual standardized patient.

It is well suited as introductory material for engineering and computer science students, as well as researchers who want to learn more about basic technologies in the area of virtual reality applied to medicine. It also provides a broad overview to non-engineering students as well as clinical users, who desire to learn more about the current state of the art and future applications of this technology.
Download or read book Exploring how Simulation Design and Participant Characteristics Impact Novice Nurses Clinical Judgement in Simulation based Learning Experiences written by Beth Ann Rogers and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: Novice nurses are graduating without adequate clinical judgment to care for patients' increasingly complex health needs. Nursing programs frequently use simulation-based learning experiences (SBLE) to develop clinical judgment. However, the increased demand for SBLE has led nurse educators to modify simulation designs and assign novice nurses to either active or observer roles, thereby increasing simulation capacity. There is conflicting evidence related to the impact of role assignments on simulation outcomes. Cognitive load may explain differences in simulation outcomes of active versus observer participants. The purpose of this body of research was to examine how simulation design and participant characteristics impact novice nurses' clinical judgment. Methods: Four analyses were performed. First, a scoping review described evidence presented in 28 articles related to simulation observers' learning outcomes. Next, an integrative review synthesized evidence presented 20 studies related to measurement and cognitive load experienced in nursing simulation. Third, a descriptive, longitudinal study described the clinical judgment trajectory of novice nurses who observed eight expert modeling video simulations and responded to clinical judgment prompts. Finally, a descriptive study explained reliability, feasibility, and usability of scoring written reflections with the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric after asynchronous simulation. Participants were simulation na?e, junior, undergraduate students in their first medical-surgical course at a nursing school in the southwestern region of the United States. Results: The scoping review identified eight major learning outcomes of the observer role. The integrative review synthesized the literature about cognitive load as a possible mediator of simulation outcomes. Regardless of clinical judgment ability, we found observers develop clinical judgment after viewing expert modeling videos asynchronously, and we identified writing characteristics differentiating novice nurses' knowledge, thinking, and approach according to clinical judgment ability categories. Finally, the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric was reliable, feasible, and usable to score novice nurses' written reflection after asynchronous simulation. Conclusion: Our body of work highlights how simulation design and participant characteristics impact learning outcomes. This work highlights the importance of using reliable measures to evaluate participant outcomes. Together, this body of research informs nurse educators' simulation design decisions which optimize learning and increase simulation program capacity.
