Abstract

Background: Escape rooms, spaces where teams collaborate to uncover clues, solve puzzles, and complete tasks, are increasingly prevalent in nursing education. This review describes a systematic review and meta-analysis on the effectiveness of escape rooms in nursing.

Method: Searches were conducted across multiple databases, including MEDLINE, CINAHL, SCOPUS, Psychology & Behavioral Sciences Collection, Academic Search Complete, MedicLatina, Teacher Reference Center, SciELO, and Cochrane.

Results: The analysis encompassed nine studies published between 2020 and 2024. The findings showed a significant enhancement in technical knowledge in pre- and postintervention comparisons. The effects on team-work skills showed high heterogeneity, indicating variability in outcomes across the studies.

Conclusion: Escape rooms have proven effective in enhancing nursing knowledge, validating their use as an innovative and efficient pedagogical tool. Future research should focus on standardizing interventions and long-term evaluation to better determine the sustained efficacy of escape rooms as a learning method.

护理中的密室逃生：系统回顾和荟萃分析。

背景：逃生室是团队合作发现线索、解决谜题和完成任务的空间，在护理教育中越来越普遍。本综述对逃生室在护理中的有效性进行了系统回顾和荟萃分析。方法：检索多个数据库，包括MEDLINE、CINAHL、SCOPUS、psychological & Behavioral Sciences Collection、Academic Search Complete、MedicLatina、Teacher Reference Center、SciELO和Cochrane。结果：该分析包括2020年至2024年间发表的9项研究。研究结果显示，在干预前和干预后的比较中，技术知识显著增强。对团队合作技能的影响表现出高度的异质性，表明研究结果存在差异。结论：逃生室在提高护理知识方面效果显著，是一种创新、高效的教学工具。未来的研究应侧重于规范干预措施和长期评估，以更好地确定逃生室作为一种学习方法的持续效果。[J].中华实用医学杂志，2015;36(5):175-182。
