Learning to set up surgical instruments for hip replacement
This study compares two ways to teach nursing students and operating room nurses how to set up the instrument table for hip replacement surgery. One method uses a digital game, and the other uses traditional training, to see which is more effective and engaging.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You are a nursing student or a nurse who works in the operating room.
- You have not had any formal training in setting up the instrument table for hip replacement surgery.
- You have not actually set up instruments for orthopedic surgery in the operating room before.
- You do not have any vision, thinking, or movement limitations that would make training difficult.

This study tests a new teaching method called Benner's Jigsaw technique, combined with scenario-based practice, to help nursing students learn how to place a peripheral intravenous catheter (a small tube in a vein). It compares this approach to standard instruction to see which helps students gain skills more effectively.
This study tests a digital education program to help patients prepare for and recover from total hip or knee replacement surgery. The program likely provides easy-to-understand information and tools to support your recovery.
This study tests a new surgery training program for medical students. It aims to help students learn more during their OBGYN rotation.
This trial compares two-on-one versus one-on-one virtual reality training for medical students learning to operate on hip fractures. It aims to see if having two instructors for every student is more effective than the usual one-on-one approach.
This study tests a team training program for operating room staff using realistic simulations. It aims to improve teamwork and communication during surgeries, which may lead to better patient safety.
This study tests a game-based learning tool for future doctors and nurses to practice clinical skills. It may help you build confidence and teamwork in a fun, low-pressure setting.
