Brief Summary

The research; It is planned to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of simulation in the management of normal labor. The research was designed in a quasi-experimental randomized controlled type. The research is carried out in the Department of Midwifery, Faculty of Health Sciences, in the 2022-2023 academic year. The sample of the study consists of all third-year students who enrolled in the Normal Birth and Postpartum Term course in the midwifery department for the first time (102 students who successfully passed the Prenatal I course in the 2021-2022 academic year. These students are in the next 2022-2023 academic year. Registered for the Post Term Course). In the literature; In experimental studies, it has been reported that a sample size of at least 30 people is required in order to perform parametric tests (24). In this study, the number of students in the groups was determined as 32, considering that they may have lost. Students were divided into three groups as experimental (d1= High Reality simulator), (d2= Medium Reality simulator) group and control group (d3= slide and video presentation). The study is carried out with 96 students in total. The students who met the inclusion criteria were given a sequence number and then randomly divided into 3 groups using the https://www.randomizer.org online randomization program. Data collection tools: In data collection; Introductory Information Form (IIF), Normal Birth Skills Assessment Form (NBSAF), Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence Scale in Learning (SSSCSL) and Evaluation of Simulation-Based Learning Scale (ESSBL) will be used.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• providing access to the number

  enough practice by students

  through study completion, an average of 9 month

Study Arms (3)

d1

EXPERIMENTAL

NBSAF's first rating on a full-reality birth simulator. During the first normal delivery practice of the student in the hospital environment, the second evaluation of NBSAF and the second application of SSSCSL and ESSBL were made.

Other: practice on birth simulator

d2

EXPERIMENTAL

An initial evaluation of NBSAF was performed on a medium reality labor stimulator. During the first normal delivery practice of the student in the hospital environment, the second evaluation of NBSAF and the second application of SSSCSL and ESSBL were made.

Other: practice on birth simulator

d3 (control)

NO INTERVENTION

Without any simulation application, the second evaluation of NBSAF and the second application of SSSCSL and ESSBL were performed during the first normal delivery practice of the student in the hospital environment.

Interventions

practice on birth simulator OTHER

making attempts at labor

Also known as: d2=medium reality birth simulator
