Brief Summary

This study aims to examine the effect of combining video-recorded performance with structured self-evaluation on nursing students' knowledge, skills, and self-confidence related to peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) insertion. In the intervention group, students' PIVC insertion procedures will be recorded by the research team. Students will watch their own performance videos, complete a structured self-evaluation checklist, and then participate in a guided feedback session. In the control group, students' procedures will also be video-recorded by the research team; however, they will not have access to their videos and will not perform self-evaluation. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and at a two-week follow-up.

Keywords

Peripheral intravenous catheter; PIVC training; Nursing students; Video-assisted education; Structured self-assessment

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• PIVC Knowledge Score

  A 20-item multiple-choice theoretical knowledge test developed by the researchers to assess students' knowledge of peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) insertion. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater PIVC knowledge.

  Baseline (Day 0, prior to training), immediately post-training (Day 1) and 2 weeks after training

• PIVC Skill Performance Score

  A 47 item PIVC skill checklist developed based on CDC guidelines and expert review, assessing students' practical performance during PIVC insertion. Each item is scored as 1 (performed correctly) or 0 (not performed), with total scores ranging from 0 to 47 Higher scores indicate better PIVC skill performance

  immediately post-training (Day 1) and 2 weeks after training

• PIVC Self-Confidence Score

  The 15-item Peripheral Intravenous Catheter Insertion Self-Confidence Scale (Marchionni et al., 2024; Turkish validity by Özbay et al., 2025) assessing students' confidence in learning and performing PIVC insertion. Items are rated on a 5-point Likert scale (1-5), with higher scores indicating higher self-confidence.

  Baseline (Day 0, prior to training), immediately post-training (Day 1) and 2 weeks after training

Study Arms (2)

Intervention Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Students will receive video-assisted structured self-evaluation. Their PIVC insertion procedures will be video-recorded by the research team, reviewed by the students, followed by completion of a structured self-evaluation checklist and a guided feedback session.

Behavioral: Video-Assisted Structured Self-Evaluation

Control Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Students will receive standard theoretical and practical PIVC training. Their procedures will also be video-recorded by the research team for assessment; however, students will not have access to their videos and will not perform structured self-evaluation.

Other: Standard Training

Interventions

Standard Training OTHER

Participants receive standard theoretical and practical PIVC training without access to video review or structured self-evaluation.

Control Group

Video-Assisted Structured Self-Evaluation BEHAVIORAL

A behavioral educational method combining video-recorded performance review, structured self-evaluation, and guided feedback to improve PIVC knowledge, skills, and self-confidence.
