Brief Summary

Intramuscular injections are one of the nursing functions frequently used in clinical practice. Sites used for the purpose of intramuscular injection; dorsogluteal, ventrogluteal, deltoid region, vastus lateralis muscle and rectus femoris muscle . Intramuscular injections can cause many complications. The most important complication is sciatic nerve injury, which may occur as a result of injection especially in the dorsogluteal region. In order to prevent complications that may develop as a result of intramuscular injection, it should be emphasized that the ventrogluteal region should be preferred in the selection of intramuscular injection site and students should be provided with the necessary knowledge and skills regarding injection from this region. In nursing education, many different methods are used with technological developments. One of them is simulation applications. There are various types of simulation applications. One of these simulation applications is virtual reality technology. The goal of this interventional research is to evaluate the effect of ventrogluteal injection training developed by researchers and given to students through virtual reality glasses.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Intramuscular Injection Application to the Ventrogluteal Region Information Evaluation Form

  The Information Evaluation Form is a form consisting of 22 propositions in total that students can answer as "True", "False" and "I do not know". The form contains an equal number of "True" and "False" propositions. The form contains propositions that measure knowledge for ventrogluteal injection. The lowest score from the form is 0 and the highest score is 22. High scores obtained from the scale indicate that the level of information of the students is high.

  2 months

• Intramuscular Injection to the Ventrogluteal Region Application Skill Evaluation Form

  The form includes intramuscular injection steps to the ventrogluteal region. The form contains 33 trading steps. The lowest score to be obtained from the form is 0 and the highest score is 100. High scores obtained from the scale indicate that the level of skill of the students is high.

Study Arms (2)

Experimental

EXPERIMENTAL

Ventrogluteal injection training given by virtual reality technology is effective in increasing the knowledge and skill levels of students. It also has an impact on students' motivation and anxiety levels. Intervention: Behavioral: Education

Behavioral: Nursing students will be trained through virtual reality.

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Ventrogluteal injection training given by virtual reality technology doesn't effective in increasing the knowledge and skill levels of students. It also hasn't an impact on students' motivation and anxiety levels.

Interventions

Nursing students will be trained through virtual reality. BEHAVIORAL

Nursing students will be trained through virtual reality.
