Abstract:
Measuring noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) is a fundamental skill that nursing students are trained to master, and they are expected to possess comprehensive knowledge and proficiency in this procedure to ensure accurate measurements. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of interactive video-based training on noninvasive blood pressure measurement provided to first-year nursing students, focusing on its impact on their knowledge and skills in performing noninvasive blood pressure measurements. Conducted from October 2022 to June 2023, the randomized controlled trial involved 66 students, split into an experimental group (n = 32) and a control group (n = 34). Following theoretical instruction, the experimental group received the video intervention, while the control group did not. No statistically significant difference was found between the mean scores of noninvasive blood pressure measurement knowledge across the participant groups (P = .482; P > .05). A statistically significant difference was found in the noninvasive blood pressure measurement skill scores between the participant groups, with the students in the experimental group scoring higher than those in the control group (P = .000; P < .05). The interactive video application positively influenced noninvasive blood pressure measurement knowledge and skills. It is recommended that technology-supported applications be incorporated into basic skills training.

Monitoring Both Arms:
Monitoring BP in both arms during the initial assessment is advisable, as the systolic value may differ by five to ten mm Hg between arms. For subsequent BP assessments, use the arm with the higher reading.
