About

The goal of this study was to compare two different simulation applications in developing the positioning skill, one of the most common nursing practices, and the communication skill, which forms the basis of nursing practices.

60 participants in 2 patient groups

Intervention

Experimental group

Description:

The students involved in the intervention group were divided into subgroups, and the simulation was carried out using standardized patients. Each subgroup consisted of two students. Students were asked to practice supine and lateral recumbent positions in each scenario.

Treatment:

Other: Standard patient simulation model

Control

No Intervention group

Description:

The students in the control group were divided into subgroups and practised the supine position and the lateral recumbent position with a high-fidelity manikin. Each subgroup consisted of two students. The applications lasted 5-10 minutes for each group, and after the applications, the debriefing phase was conducted, which lasted 20 minutes.
