Brief Summary

The study aimed to determine the effect of different simulation methods on nursing students' self-confidence, satisfaction, and clinical breastfeeding management knowledge and skills in managing and supporting breastfeeding in the early postpartum period.

Conditions

Breastfeeding

Keywords

breastfeeding; nursing students; Nursing Research, Educational

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• breastfeeding management knowledge

  The researchers developed a measurement tool to assess information. The tool uses a scoring system where correct statements receive one point and incorrect statements receive zero points. The total score ranges from 0 to 47 points.

  change from before implemention and 5th week of after practice

• breastfeeding management skills

  The researchers developed a checklist to assess skills. The tool uses a scoring system where correct practice receives one point and incorrect statements receive zero points. The checklist consists of seven sections. The number of items in each section ranges from 4 to 14.

  through simulation practices completion, an average of 5 weeks and through clinical practices completion, an average of 5 weeks

• Evaluation of Breastfeeding Education

  The researchers developed a measurement tool to assess breastfeeding education. The form items are evaluated as feeling adequate or inadequate (1 or 0 points). The total score ranges from 0 to 27 points.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• students' self-confidence and satisfaction

  through simulation practices completion, an average of 5 weeks

• self-evaluation

  through simulation practices completion, an average of 5 weeks

• education methods satisfaction

  through simulation practices completion, an average of 5 weeks and through clinical practices completion, an average of 5 weeks

Study Arms (4)

high-fidelity simulation

EXPERIMENTAL

These students participated in a breastfeeding management scenario with a high-fidelity simulation mannikin named Noella S554.100 (n=11).

Other: high-fidelity simulation

hybrid simulation

EXPERIMENTAL

These students participated in the same breastfeeding management scenario with a standardized patient (n=11).

Other: hybrid simulation

telesimulation

EXPERIMENTAL

These students participated in the same breastfeeding management scenario with a standardized patient via Microsoft Teams video conferencing. (n=11)

Other: telesimulation

control

NO INTERVENTION

The students in this group were the control group, and no intervention was made.

Interventions

high-fidelity simulation OTHER

The high-fidelity simulation involved a student and a computer-based mannikin. Prior to the start of the scenario, a pre-briefing session was provided. The scenario was executed with the help of the researcher from the control room. The student's performance during the simulation was recorded with video. Each simulation lasted around 30 minutes. Following the simulation, a debriefing session was held with the student, and feedback was provided. Scales were used to assess the implementation of the practices.

hybrid simulation OTHER

The hybrid simulation involved a student and a standardized patient. The patient wore a wearable breast model and held a model baby. Prior to the start of the scenario, a pre-briefing session was provided. The student's performance during the simulation was recorded with video. Each simulation lasted around 30 minutes. Following the simulation, a debriefing session was held with the student, and feedback was provided. Scales were used to assess the implementation of the practices.

telesimulation OTHER

The telesimulation involved a student and a standardized patient. The patient wore a wearable breast model and held a model baby. Students and patients communicated via video conferencing. Prior to the start of the scenario, a pre-briefing session was provided. The student's performance during the simulation was recorded with video. Each simulation lasted around 30 minutes. Following the simulation, a debriefing session was held with the student, and feedback was provided. Scales were used to assess the implementation of the practices.

Study Design

• Study Type: interventional
• Phase: not applicable
• Allocation: RANDOMIZED
• Masking: SINGLE
• Who Masked: PARTICIPANT
• Masking Details: The students who participated in the research were unaware of which group they were assigned to and attended the practices accordingly. During the clinical follow-up phase, a clinical breastfeeding nurse evaluated the practices using a checklist but did not know which group the students belonged to.
