Blood Clot: gaming to reinforce learning about disseminated intravascular coagulation

The game, Blood Clot, is an educational tool to reinforce learning following a lecture about disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).

The game was implemented as an educational update for thirty Registered Nurses in a hospital setting.

The game reinforced learning of lecture material and stimulated group involvement and communication.

The self-report evaluations indicate Blood Clot enhanced communication within the group and application of lecture material to solve problems.
