Summary
The Pecha Kucha (PK) method did not significantly improve nursing students' intramuscular injection knowledge, skill, or satisfaction compared to traditional PowerPoint training. Further research is needed to explore PK's applicability in diverse nursing education settings.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Medical Training Methodologies
Background:
- Intramuscular (IM) injection is a fundamental nursing skill.
- Traditional training methods may have limitations in engagement and knowledge retention.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the effectiveness of the Pecha Kucha (PK) method for IM injection training.
- To compare PK training with traditional PowerPoint presentations.
Main Methods:
- A single-blind, randomized controlled trial involving 76 first-year nursing students.
- Intervention group received PK training; control group received PowerPoint training.
- Knowledge, skill, and satisfaction were assessed using validated instruments.
Main Results:
- The PK group demonstrated higher mean scores, but without statistical significance (p > .05).
- No significant differences were found between PK and PowerPoint groups in knowledge, skill, or satisfaction.
Conclusions:
- The Pecha Kucha method showed potential but did not yield statistically significant improvements over traditional methods.
- Further studies with diverse samples and varied nursing skills are recommended to assess PK's broader applicability.
