This study tests whether nursing students can learn how to use an implanted port catheter (a medical device for long-term IV access) better with a virtual reality training simulation. It looks for students who have already finished their Internal Medicine Nursing course.
This study tests whether a simulation-based learning method helps nursing students feel more confident and less stressed.
This study tests whether a virtual reality practice session before clinical training can help reduce stress and anxiety. It is designed for second-year nursing students who have not yet taken the surgical nursing course.
This study tests a new simulation training for nursing students learning how to give injections and IV medications. It compares learning outcomes for students who use the simulation versus those who don't. If you are a first-time nursing student who has never practiced these skills before, you might be able to join.
This study tests whether a mindfulness-based stress reduction program helps nursing students manage high stress levels. Mindfulness teaches you to focus on the present moment to reduce worry and anxiety.
