Human Patient Simulators (HPS) improved nursing students' patient identification and vital sign assessment skills in a pilot study. Further research with larger samples is recommended to validate these findings.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Nursing Practice
  • Simulation Technology

Background:

  • Human Patient Simulators (HPS) are increasingly utilized in nursing education.
  • Evidence validating the impact of HPS on clinical performance is limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the influence of systematic HPS practice on nursing students' clinical performance.
  • To identify specific clinical practice parameters affected by HPS training.

Main Methods:

  • A pilot study involving 12 senior second-degree BSN students.
  • Evaluation of clinical performance in safety, assessment, prioritization, intervention, delegation, and communication.
  • Comparison between a group receiving HPS training plus usual clinical training and a control group receiving only usual training.

Main Results:

  • Students practicing with HPS showed significantly higher scores in Patient Identification (p = 0.001).
  • Assessing Vital Signs scores were also significantly higher in the HPS group (p = 0.009).
  • No significant differences were observed in other performance categories between groups.

Conclusions:

  • Systematic practice with Human Patient Simulators may enhance specific clinical skills in nursing students.
  • Further investigation with larger sample sizes is warranted to confirm these preliminary findings.
