Simulation-based education and the effect of multiple simulation sessions - A randomised controlled study

Approaches for boosting self-confidence of clinical nursing students: A systematic review and meta-analysis

“…Five studies were conducted in the USA [ 9 , [23] , [24] , [25] , [26] ], nine in Asia (Taiwan, Jordan, South Korea, Singapore, and Saudi Arabia) [ [27] , [28] , [29] , [30] , [31] , [32] , [33] , [34] , [35] ], and six in Europe (Turkey, France, Norway) [ [36] , [37] , [38] , [39] , [40] , [41] ], and two in Brazil [ 41 , 42 ]. Seventeen studies included simulation learning [ 9 , [23] , [24] , [25] , [26] , 28 , 30 , 31 , [34] , [35] , [36] , [37] , [38] , [39] , [40] , [41] , [42] ], three studies included learning-teaching methods based on the course plan [ 29 , 32 , 33 ], one study included a skill demonstration video delivered by smartphone [ 27 ] and one included Web-based education [ 36 ]. The studies used different self-confidence measurement tools, with the Self-Confidence with Learning Scale [ 37 , 41 , 42 ], Confidence Level tool (CL) [ 24 , 25 ], Confidence in Communication Self-Assessment Survey [ 27 , 28 ], and Confidence Scale (C-scale) [ 34 , 35 ] being the most commonly used.…”

“…The purpose of simulation learning is to alleviate certain psychological problems or boost self-confidence. Out of the 17 studies employing this intervention, 7 studies found no significant association between the outcome and intervention [ 25 , 34 , 35 , 37 , 39 , 41 , 42 ], while others reported a strong association between the outcome and intervention [ 9 , 23 , 24 , 26 , 28 , 30 , 31 , 36 , 38 , 40 ].…”

“…In these studies, the self-confidence and knowledge of students in the intervention group were significantly enhanced in comparison to the control group [ 39 ]. Other studies also revealed the positive impacts of simulation on clinical learning, self-confidence, intimate partner violence, and decision-making skills [ 24 , 26 , 40 ]. Simulation learning has also shown effectiveness in directing nursing students toward the acquisition of knowledge and critical thinking for learning CPR (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation) [ 33 ].…”

Teaching Strategies for Developing Clinical Reasoning Skills in Nursing Students: A Systematic Review of Randomised Controlled Trials

“…Clinical simulation was used to develop nursing students’ clinical reasoning in evaluating wounds and their treatments [ 12 ], to evaluate and compare the perception of stressors, with the goal of determining whether simulations promote students’ self-evaluation and critical-thinking skills [ 23 ], and also to evaluate the impact of multiple simulations on students’ self-reported clinical decision-making skills and self-confidence [ 24 ].…”

The Effect of Simulation on Newly Licensed Nurses’ Confidence in Initiating Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: A Narrative Review

“…The use of low-fidelity, medium-fidelity, high-fidelity, and peer simulation was noted. High-fidelity simulation was the most common (Almeida et al, 2019;Bowers et al, 2020;Crowe et al, 2018;Haddeland et al, 2018;Karageorge et al, 2020;La Cerra et al, 2019;Labrague et al, 2019;Linn et al, 2021;McLaughlin et al, 2018;Morton et al, 2019;Ozkara San et al, 2021;Svellingen et al, 2021;and Tawalbeh, 2020). Dalwood et al (2020), did not use manikins and completed their study with the use of untrained peers participating in peer simulation.…”
