Comparison of mobile learning and face-to-face training in intermittent catheterization education: A randomized controlled trial
Aim
This study aimed to compare the knowledge and skill levels of nursing students who received either mobile learning or face-to-face training on intermittent catheterization.
Background
Performing Intermittent Catheterization (IC) with the correct technique can significantly prevent catheterization-related complications. Ensuring that nurses are proficient in IC prevents complications and enables timely and accurate execution of the procedure.
Design
A parallel-group, non-inferiority, randomized, controlled trial.
Method
A total of 74 fourth-year nursing students in Türkiye were randomly assigned to either the face-to-face training (n = 37) or mobile learning group (n = 37) using block randomization. The study provided intermittent catheterization training via mobile application or traditional face-to-face instruction between April 10 and April 17, 2025. Data were collected using the IC Knowledge test and a skills checklist for both male and female catheterization procedures.
Results
No significant difference was determined in the IC knowledge score between mobile learning (14.21 SD 1.58) and face-to-face training (13.56 SD 1.78) groups. There was also no significant difference in the skill performance score between the mobile learning (18.51 SD 1.57/19.13 SD 1.15) and face-to-face training (18.62 SD 1.31/18.56 SD 1.70) groups in respect of female/male catheterization procedures. The results showed that mobile learning on IC was non-inferior (non-inferiority margin: −1.02, 95 % CI: −0.13–1.43).
Conclusion
Mobile learning was found to be as effective as face-to-face training in enhancing both knowledge and practical skills in intermittent catheterization. Mobile applications can be considered as a supplement to face-to-face training in nursing education or as an alternative when face-to-face training is not possible.
期刊介绍:
Nurse Education in Practice enables lecturers and practitioners to both share and disseminate evidence that demonstrates the actual practice of education as it is experienced in the realities of their respective work environments. It is supportive of new authors and will be at the forefront in publishing individual and collaborative papers that demonstrate the link between education and practice.
