A scoping review of studies on nursing simulation education using standardized patients in Korea

Purpose : This study is a scoping literature review on simulation education using domestic standardized patients based on the scoping literature review protocol presented by The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI), and provides basic data for future simulation education using standardized patients. Method : The literature search was conducted through 4 domestic sources (DBpia, KISS, KMBASE, NDSL), and documents published from January 2011 to December 2021. The main search terms were ‘standardized patient’ and ‘simulation’. As a result, 21 articles that met the selection criteria were selected. Results : The results show that quantitative research was the largest with 17 (81.0%) out of a total of 21 articles, and that nursing simulation education as the main topic (title) had the most articles with 7 (33.3%). Communication ability was found to be the most common variable with 8 pieces (38.1%). Conclusion : By means of the analysis results of the literature review on the subject range of simulation education using domestic standardized patients, it will be possible to use them as meaningful data to improve the effectiveness and quality of simulation education using standardized patients.
