Summary
Extended reality (XR) pediatric nursing simulation programs show significant effectiveness. Further research is recommended to standardize virtual simulation methods for optimal educational outcomes.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Medical Simulation
- Extended Reality (XR) Technologies
Background:
- Pediatric nursing education increasingly utilizes simulation.
- Extended reality (XR) offers innovative approaches to simulation.
Purpose of the Study:
- To systematically review and analyze the effectiveness of XR-based pediatric nursing simulation programs.
- To identify trends and common methodologies in XR pediatric nursing simulations.
Main Methods:
- Systematic literature review and meta-analysis conducted between May 1-30, 2022.
- Searched MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, and CINAHL databases for studies from 2000-2022.
- Analyzed 14 selected articles for content and 10 for meta-analysis using descriptive statistics and Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software.
Main Results:
- A notable increase in XR-based pediatric nursing simulation programs since 2019.
- Virtual reality (VR) simulations with manikins or high-fidelity simulators were most prevalent (6 studies).
- A statistically significant overall effect size of 0.84 (95% CI: 0.50-1.19) was found.
Conclusions:
- Suggests the development of standardized guidelines for virtual pediatric nursing simulation education.
- Highlights the need for more sophisticated research designs to measure effectiveness.
- Recommends combining various virtual simulation methods to validate optimal methodologies.

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...
