Brief Summary

This study is a randomized controlled, parallel patterned, single-blind experimental study conducted to investigate the effects of video-based virtual reality (VR) training on self-confidence and motivation levels of nursing students regarding peripheral venous catheterization (PVC) skills. The intervention group will receive video-based training via VR headsets, while the control group will be presented with the same content via traditional face-to-face narration and demonstration. Self-confidence and motivation levels before and after the training will be assessed with valid scales. The study is expected to contribute to the development of innovative technology-supported teaching strategies in nursing education.

Conditions

Peripheral Venous Catheterization; Nursing Students; Clinical Skills Training; Self-confidence in Clinical Decision Making and Anxiety

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Self-confidence in peripheral intravenous catheterization

  The Peripheral Intravenous Catheterization Self-Confidence Scale will be used to assess nursing students' self-confidence in performing peripheral IV catheter insertion. The scale consists of 15 items, each rated on a 5-point Likert scale. The total score ranges from 15 to 75, with higher scores indicating greater self-confidence.

  Pre-intervention (Day 1) and post-intervention (Day 2)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• Change in motivation score regarding peripheral intravenous catheterization

  Pre-intervention (Day 1) and post-intervention (Day 2)

Study Arms (2)

Control Group - Traditional Education with Demonstration

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants in this group will receive traditional face-to-face education accompanied by live demonstration of peripheral venous catheterization (PVC) procedure. The educational content will be the same as the intervention group but delivered without the use of virtual reality (VR) technology.

Behavioral: Traditional Education with Demonstration

Experimental Group -Video-Based Virtual Reality Education

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in the experimental group will receive video-based virtual reality (VR) education using a headset. The training provides visual and stepwise instruction on peripheral venous catheterization (PVC).

Behavioral: Video-Based Virtual Reality Education

Interventions

Video-Based Virtual Reality Education BEHAVIORAL

Participants receive VR-based video training using a headset. The content includes step-by-step instruction on peripheral venous catheterization.

Experimental Group -Video-Based Virtual Reality Education

Traditional Education with Demonstration BEHAVIORAL

Participants receive traditional face-to-face instruction and live demonstration of peripheral venous catheterization (PVC).

Control Group - Traditional Education with Demonstration
