About

This study is a randomized controlled, parallel patterned, single-blind experimental study conducted to investigate the effects of video-based virtual reality (VR) training on self-confidence and motivation levels of nursing students regarding peripheral venous catheterization (PVC) skills. The intervention group will receive video-based training via VR headsets, while the control group will be presented with the same content via traditional face-to-face narration and demonstration. Self-confidence and motivation levels before and after the training will be assessed with valid scales. The study is expected to contribute to the development of innovative technology-supported teaching strategies in nursing education.

60 participants in 2 patient groups

Control Group - Traditional Education with Demonstration

Active Comparator group

Description:

Participants in this group will receive traditional face-to-face education accompanied by live demonstration of peripheral venous catheterization (PVC) procedure. The educational content will be the same as the intervention group but delivered without the use of virtual reality (VR) technology.

Treatment:

Behavioral: Traditional Education with Demonstration

Experimental Group -Video-Based Virtual Reality Education

Experimental group

Description:

Participants in the experimental group will receive video-based virtual reality (VR) education using a headset. The training provides visual and stepwise instruction on peripheral venous catheterization (PVC).

Treatment:

Behavioral: Video-Based Virtual Reality Education
