Aim: The objective of the study was to examine the effectiveness of simulation practices in improving the emergency case management skills of nursing students.
Method: The study was designed as quasi-experimental research and carried out with nursing students (n=42) in three phases. In the first phase, theoretical training on emergency situations was delivered. The students were involved in the emergency case scenarios interacting with high-fidelity simulators and standardized patients, and their performances were recorded in the second phase. In the third phase, debriefing sessions were conducted. Pre- and post-tests and written feedback forms were used to gather the data.
Results: The levels of knowledge (mean score of pre-test: 2.83; post-test: 5.95) were statistically significant (p<0.05). A positive change was revealed in the levels of self-confidence among the students after the training program.
Conclusion: It was concluded that simulation practices were effective in the improvement of students’ self-confidence and knowledge in emergency case management.

SİMÜLASYON UYGULAMALARININ HEMŞİRELİK ÖĞRENCİLERİNİN ACİL VAKA YÖNETİM BECERİLERİNİN GELİŞTİRİLMESİNE ETKİSİ

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı hemşirelik öğrencilerinin acil vaka yönetim becerilerinin geliştirilmesinde simülasyon uygulamasının etkisinin incelenmesidir.
Yöntem: Araştırma yarı deneysel nitelikte tasarlandı ve hemşirelik öğrencileri ile üç aşamada gerçekleştirildi (n=42). İlk aşamada, acil olgulara ilişkin teorik eğitim verildi. İkinci aşamada, yüksek gerçeklikli similatör ve standart hastaların kullanıldığı acil olgu senaryolarında öğrencilerin performansları kayıt altına alındı. Üçüncü aşamada ise çözümleme oturumları gerçekleştirildi. Verilerin toplanmasında ön ve son testler ile yazılı geri bildirim formları kullanıldı.
Bulgular: Bilgi düzeyi (ön testin ortalama puanı: 2.83; test sonrası: 5.95) istatistiksel olarak anlamlıydı (p <0.05). Eğitim programından sonra öğrencilerin öz yeterlilik düzeylerinde olumlu bir değişim ortaya çıktı.
Sonuç: Simülasyon uygulamalarının öğrencilerin acil vaka yönetimindeki öz yeterlilik düzeyleri ve bilgilerinin geliştirilmesinde etkili olduğu sonucuna varıldı.
