Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of a flexible, self-paced training system for intravenous cannulation.
  • To improve nurses' confidence and competence in performing cannulation procedures.
  • To address the gap in skill retention observed with traditional training methods.

Main Methods:

  • Introduction of a flexible training system incorporating videos and workbooks.

  • Nurses were enabled to build a portfolio of clinical skills at their own pace.
  • Self-directed learning and portfolio development were key components of the new system.

    • Main Results:

    • The flexible training system facilitated nurses' skill acquisition and retention.
    • Nurses could progress through training modules according to their individual learning needs.
    • Portfolio development allowed for documented evidence of skill mastery.

    Conclusions:

    • Flexible, self-paced training models can enhance nurses' ability to learn and maintain clinical skills.
    • The use of multimedia resources like videos and workbooks supports independent learning.
    • This approach offers a viable solution to improve cannulation competency in nursing practice.
