Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of simulation-based training in the cardiac rehabilitation course on the confidence and satisfaction of physiotherapy and rehabilitation students. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does simulation-based training in blood pressure and electrocardiography in cardiac rehabilitation have an effect on the confidence levels of physiotherapy students? Does simulation-based training in blood pressure and electrocardiography in cardiac rehabilitation have an effect on the satisfaction levels of physiotherapy students? Does simulation-based training in blood pressure and electrocardiography in cardiac rehabilitation have an effect on the theoretical knowledge levels of physiotherapy students? This study is planned to be conducted with 39 individuals who are enrolled in the course and taking it for the first time. The study will be conducted at the Acıbadem University CASE Laboratory using surveys administered before and after simulation training on blood pressure and electrocardiography (ECG). The sociodemographic characteristics of the participants will be recorded using an information form. The level of experience, theoretical knowledge, and competency in blood pressure and ECG measurement will be assessed with a 'Pre-Test' prepared for this purpose. The same parameters, along with satisfaction with the simulation training, will be assessed with a 'Post-Test' using a self-assessment survey method after the training. The prepared surveys, detailed below, will be completed separately for blood pressure and ECG training.

Healthy; Simulation of Physical Illness; Blood Pressure

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning

  The 'Student Satisfaction and Confidence Scale in Learning' will be administered separately for blood pressure and ECG training at the end of the simulation. The original 13-item scale by Jeffries and Rizzolo (2006) was adapted into Turkish with 12 items. It uses a 5-point Likert scale and includes two subscales: 'Satisfaction with Current Learning' (5 items) and 'Confidence in Learning' (7 items), with no negative items. Scores are obtained by averaging subscale scores. Higher total scores indicate greater satisfaction and confidence. Item 13 was recommended for exclusion by Franklin et al., re-evaluated by language experts, and removed by the research group. Therefore, the 12-item version will be used in our study
