THE EFFECT OF PICO GAME ON NURSING DIAGNOSIS AND PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS OF STUDENTS

Abstract

Objective This research was conducted to determine the effect of the PICO game on students’ problem-solving skills as well as their ability to determine the diagnosis and planning in the nursing process. Materials and Methods The research is a quasi-experimental study conducted in February-March 2020. The sample of the research was comprised of 40 second year students attending the nursing process course at the department of nursing. The data of the research were collected with a questionnaire for socio-demographic characteristics, visual analog scale for assessing satisfaction, the problem-solving inventory and the nursing process planning table. Results There was no significant difference between the total and subscale scores of the Problem-Solving Inventory before and after the PICO game. The average satisfaction score of the students about the conduction of the course was found to be 9.38 ± 1.19 out of 10. Conclusion As a result of the research, the students were able to correctly identify the effective clinical questions and nursing diagnoses specific to PICO scenarios and the interventions and patient outcomes specific to these diagnoses.

PİCO OYUNUNUN ÖĞRENCİLERİN HEMŞİRELİK TANILARI VE PROBLEM ÇÖZME BECERİLERİ ÜZERİNE ETKİSİ

Abstract

Amaç Bu araştırma, PICO oyununun öğrencilerin hemşirelik sürecinde tanı ve planlamayı belirleme ve problem çözme becerilerine olan etkisinin belirlenmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Gereç ve Yöntem Araştırma Şubat-Mart 2020 tarihinde yapılan yarı-deneysel tipte bir araştırmadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini hemşirelik bölümünde hemşirelik süreci dersine devam eden 40 ikinci sınıf öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın verileri sosyodemografik özellikler anketi, memnuniyeti değerlendirmeye yönelik görsel analog ölçeği, problem çözme envanteri ve hemşirelik süreç planlama tablosu ile toplanmıştır. Bulgular Öğrencilerin PICO oyunu öncesi ve sonrası Problem Çözme Becerileri Ölçeği toplam ve alt ölçekleri puan ortalamaları arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Öğrencilerin dersin işlenişi ile ilgili memnuniyet puan ortalaması 10 üzerinden 9.38±1.19 olarak belirlenmiştir. Sonuç Araştırma sonucunda, öğrencilerin PICO senaryolarına özgü etkili klinik soru sorma ve hemşirelik tanılarını ve bu tanılara özgü girişim ve hasta sonuçlarını doğru bir şekilde belirledikleri saptanmıştır.
