The Effects of the Simulation Practice Education in Women’s Health Nursing through a Scoping Review

Abstract

Purpose : The objective of this study is to arrange the educational foundation, which can be applied to the nursing practice education, through providing basic materials on the simulation practice education of women’s health nursing after analyzing the research trends on the simulation practice education in maternity nursing and systematically considering the characteristics of the program. Methods : The scoping review was applied for grasping 21 pieces of research trends on the simulation practice education in women’s health nursing, which were released domestically from 2011 to 2021. Results : A research on the effects of the delivery nursing education with the application of simulation based on the classification according to a research theme includes totally 12 pieces (57.1%). There were 3 pieces (14.3%) for a research with a comparison of the effects between the simulation practice and the clinical training education, 3 pieces (14.3%) for a research on the effects of the simulation education according to a learning method, 1 piece (4.8%) for a research on the effects of the integrated(maternal-child) simulation education, 1 piece (4.8%) for a research on a method of operating the maternal and child nursing simulation, and 1 piece (4.8%) for a research on educational effects of the patient role experience using a qualitative research. Conclusion : Simulation practice education in women’s health nursing, it is necessary to redesign various teaching and learning methods to improve the quality of practice content and composition, and to seek various strategies for students to practice without stress and achieve educational effects.
