Current Trends in Nursing II

1.2K
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,...

Summary

Non-immersive virtual reality (NIVR) simulation training helps nurses adapt to isolation wards by reducing task times, though theoretical knowledge gains are similar to traditional methods. This technology offers a safe, repeatable way to enhance pandemic preparedness.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education Technology
  • Nursing Simulation
  • Virtual Reality Applications

Background:

  • Nurses are vital during infectious disease outbreaks but face challenges in isolation wards, including inadequate training and high stress.
  • Virtual reality (VR) offers potential solutions for enhancing nurses' clinical skills and preparedness in these demanding environments.
  • Limited studies exist on VR's effectiveness specifically within isolation ward settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a non-immersive virtual reality (NIVR) simulation training program tailored for isolation wards.
  • To validate the feasibility and effectiveness of NIVR training in improving nurses' adaptation to isolation ward settings.
  • To compare NIVR training with conventional methods for nurses' preparedness.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective, randomized controlled trial involving 90 nurses across 3 hospitals in China.
  • Participants were assigned to either a control group (conventional training: lectures and ward visits) or an intervention group (4-hour NIVR simulation).
  • Both groups underwent emergency drills and assessments post-intervention.

Main Results:

  • No significant differences were observed in theoretical knowledge or performance assessment scores between the NIVR and conventional training groups.
  • The NIVR group demonstrated significantly faster completion times for overall tasks (average 3 minutes reduction) and specific tasks like patient reception and exiting the isolation area.
  • The intervention group's faster task completion suggests improved efficiency in specific isolation ward procedures.

Conclusions:

  • Non-immersive virtual reality (NIVR) simulation training shows potential for nurses in isolation wards, particularly in reducing task completion times.
  • While not superior in theoretical knowledge transfer, NIVR offers a safe and repeatable method for practicing realistic scenarios, valuable for medical education.
  • Further research and optimization of NIVR simulation programs are recommended to enhance nurses' practical skills and pandemic preparedness.
