Introduction:
Escape room (ER) methodology is recognised as an innovative pedagogical tool in nursing education, fostering an interactive environment that transforms students from passive observers into active participants. Current research on ER in educational contexts primarily emphasises their effectiveness and learner experiences, while neglecting the specific facilitators and barriers relevant to nursing education. This gap leads to a lack of essential frameworks for course design. Understanding these barriers and facilitators is crucial for the effective application of ERs in educational settings. Consequently, this review aims to identify factors associated with the implementation of ER in nursing education, using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research as a guiding framework.
Methods And Analysis:
The search will encompass six English databases and three Chinese databases from their inception to 1 October 2025: CINAHL, Embase, Education Resources Information Center, Scopus, Web of Science and MEDLINE, Wang Fang, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and the Chinese Biomedical Literature Database. Studies with qualitative, quantitative or mixed-methods designs will be included. Publications in English or Chinese will be considered from database inception. Two independent researchers will conduct screening and data extraction according to predefined criteria. A convergent integrated approach, including the transformation of quantitative results, will be employed, followed by thematic synthesis to analyse the findings. Discrepancies will be resolved through discussions with a third reviewer.
Ethics And Dissemination:
The ethical approval for this review is unnecessary due to the utilisation of secondary data. The outcomes are scheduled for publication in a peer-reviewed journal, with the aim of elucidating the facilitators and barriers linked to the integration of ER in nursing education.
