Brief Summary

The present study wants to design a training program for chemotherapy with using VR. Then the investigators design a protocol to compare the training effects in the VR program and ISO document.

Conditions

Chemotherapy Training

Keywords

virtual reality; chemotherapy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• The questionnaire about intervention effect

  After intervention, the investigator want to know the effect of intervention. A total of 12 questions, using the Likert's scale, very disagree(1) to very agree(5). It will compute a total score, score high means more effective.

  After intervention 1 week, to perform the test. Including the content design, the convenience, the effectiveness, and promotion.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• The questionnaire of Knowledge level for chemotherapy technique

  Before the intervention, the investigator perform a pretest. After intervention 1 week, the investigator perform the post test.

• The questionnaire of Attitude for chemotherapy operation

  Before the intervention, the investigator perform a pretest. After intervention 1 week, the investigator perform the post test.
