High-fidelity simulation provides nursing students with the opportunity to learn and achieve competence in a safe context. The aim of the study was to assess learning outcomes following multiple exposures to high-fidelity simulation sessions. The sample consisted of 18 graduate students enrolled in a critical care nursing course. A four-hour high-fidelity simulation experience was conducted, with a four-hour retraining one month after. Group performance, self-efficacy, self-confidence, and satisfaction improved after multiple exposures to high-fidelity simulation. High-fidelity simulation is a valid adjunct to nursing education in the short term and may improve learning when offered at multiple time points.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
