Abstract

Background

We investigated the impact of an immersive virtual reality (IVR)-based scenario simulation education program as an alternative to traditional maternity nursing practicums.

Method

A simulation maternity nursing class at Wonkwang University in South Korea was conducted with 59 junior nursing students (experimental group = 30, control group = 29). This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effects of the IVR simulation on students’ knowledge, satisfaction, self-efficacy, and confidence in delivering nursing care. We conducted data collection from September 2021 to February 2022. SPSS version 25.0 was used for data analysis.

Results

Both groups’ most common previous-semester grade was B, followed by A and C. In the experimental group, 17 participants reported high or very high satisfaction, and 12 in the control group reported high satisfaction. The groups showed significant differences in knowledge (p = .024), satisfaction (p < .001), self-efficacy (p = .018), and confidence (p < .001) in normal vaginal delivery nursing care.

Conclusions

Compared to traditional simulation, IVR simulation can enhance maternity nursing students’ knowledge, satisfaction, self-efficacy, and confidence.

沉浸式虚拟现实模拟产科护理教育的效果：随机对照试验

背景我们研究了基于沉浸式虚拟现实（IVR）的情景模拟教育项目作为传统产科护理实习替代方案的影响。方法在韩国圆光大学为 59 名大三护理专业学生开设了模拟产科护理课程（实验组=30 人，对照组=29 人）。这项随机对照试验评估了 IVR 模拟对学生提供护理服务的知识、满意度、自我效能和信心的影响。我们从 2021 年 9 月至 2022 年 2 月进行了数据收集。结果两组学生最常见的上学期成绩都是 B，其次是 A 和 C。在实验组中，有 17 名学生表示很满意或非常满意，对照组中有 12 名学生表示很满意。两组在正常阴道分娩护理知识（p = .024）、满意度（p <.001）、自我效能感（p = .018）和信心（p <.001）方面均有显著差异。

期刊介绍： Clinical Simulation in Nursing is an international, peer reviewed journal published online monthly. Clinical Simulation in Nursing is the official journal of the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) and reflects its mission to advance the science of healthcare simulation. We will review and accept articles from other health provider disciplines, if they are determined to be of interest to our readership. The journal accepts manuscripts meeting one or more of the following criteria: Research articles and literature reviews (e.g. systematic, scoping, umbrella, integrative, etc.) about simulation Innovative teaching/learning strategies using simulation Articles updating guidelines, regulations, and legislative policies that impact simulation Leadership for simulation Simulation operations Clinical and academic uses of simulation.
