Nursing students' knowledge, attitude, self-efficacy in blended learning of cardiopulmonary resuscitation: a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Although various forms of online education are on the rise worldwide, effects of such innovative approach are yet to be validated. This study analyzes whether blended learning cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) education that integrates e-learning and face-to-face education is effective in improving nursing students' knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy. METHODS:A randomized controlled design was used. The participants of this study were 120 nursing students randomly assigned to the intervention group (n?=?60) or the control (n?=?60). The intervention group was trained using a blended learning CPR education program. Self report questionnaires with knoweldge, attitude, and self-efficacy were all used in the pre and post intervention. Differences before and after the education of each group were analyzed with a paired t-test, and the differences between the two groups were analyzed with ANCOVA with knowledge as the covariate. RESULTS:The findings indicated that the intervention group had significantly higher knowledge scores (intervention: 16.40?±?1.56, control: 6.46?±?2, p?

Project description:BackgroundA clinical handover is an essential nursing practice that ensures patient safety. However, most newly graduated nurses struggle to conduct clinical handovers as they lack sufficient communication skill competence and self-efficacy in this practice. This study aimed to examine the efficacy of a blended learning programme on the communication skill competence and self-efficacy of final-year nursing students in conducting clinical handovers.MethodsA randomised controlled design was used. A convenience sample of 96 final-year baccalaureate nursing students at a local university. Data were collected in 2020. Participants were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (n = 50) that received a blended learning programme with face-to-face training and an online module on handover practice, or a waitlist control group (n = 46) that received only face-to-face handover training during the study period and an online module immediately after the completion of data collection. The primary outcome was the communication skill competence and the secondary outcome was the self-efficacy of the participants in conducting clinical handovers. An analysis of covariance was used to examine the between-subjects effects on self-efficacy and communication skill competence in conducting clinical handovers after controlling for the significantly correlated variables. A paired sample t-test was used to determine the within-subjects effects on self-efficacy.ResultsThe participants in the experimental group had significantly higher communication skill competence (p < 0.001) than those in the waitlist control group. Although both groups showed a significant improvement in self-efficacy, the mean scores of the experimental group were higher than those of the waitlist control group (p < 0.001).ConclusionsThis study demonstrated the efficacy of a blended learning approach in improving the communication skill competence and self-efficacy of final-year nursing students in conducting clinical handovers. Nurse educators should incorporate a blended learning approach into the nursing curriculum to optimise the content of training programmes for teaching nursing students in conducting clinical handovers.Trial registrationThe study protocol was registered in the Registration ClinicalTrials.gov ( NCT05150067 ; retrospective registration; date of registration 08/12/2021).

Project description:BackgroundPatient safety is a top priority for any health care system. Most universities are looking for teaching methods through which they would be able to enhance students' clinical decision-making capabilities and their self-centered learning to ensure safe and quality nursing care. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effect of patient safety education through problem-based learning (PBL) on nursing students' knowledge, attitude, and perceptions toward patient safety.MethodsThis randomized, controlled trial was conducted from September 2019 to January 2020. A total of 78 fourth-year nursing students participated in this study. The participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the control group. In the intervention group, the educational materials were presented to the students using the PBL method during eight sessions of 45-60 min. In each control group, nursing students received eight education sessions through lectures and discussing the same educational content. Data were gathered 1 month after the intervention using demographic information and knowledge, attitudes, and perception questionnaires. Data were analyzed in SPSS ver. 22.0 using descriptive (mean and standard deviation) and inferential (chi-square test, independent t-test, paired t-test, and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA)) statistics.ResultsThe results indicated that the difference in the mean scores of knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of the nursing students about patient safety was statistically significant between the two groups after the PBL education (p = 0.001). The mean scores of students' knowledge, attitude, and perceptions of patient safety increased significantly in the intervention group.ConclusionsImplementing patient safety education through PBL positively affects knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of patient safety among nursing students. Thus, the research team recommended the PBL method to be used by nursing professors to improve nursing students' clinical skills and cognitive abilities to ensure safe patient care.Trial registrationIRCT20190925044881N1 ; October 17, 2019.

Project description:Worldwide, millions of people die of sudden cardiac arrest every year. This is partly due to limited and sometimes ineffective bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The need for mouth-to-mouth contact, fear of causing harm, litigation, and the complexity of delivering CPR are the main deterrents. In view of this, the basic life support algorithm has been simplified and lay rescuers are encouraged to perform Hands-Only CPR.The objective of this study is to assess knowledge on and willingness to perform Hands-Only CPR among Malaysian college students and to determine the relationship between the two.In an online self-administered survey, college students responded to a questionnaire on demographics, exposure to CPR, knowledge on Hands-Only CPR, and their willingness to perform Hands-Only CPR in 5 different scenarios (family members or relatives, strangers, trauma victims, children, and elderly people).Data for 393 participants were analyzed. For knowledge, the mean score was 8.6 ± 3.2 and the median score was 9. In the sample, 27% of the respondents did not attend any CPR training before, citing that they were unsure where to attend the course. The knowledge score among those who attended CPR training (M = 3.6, S = 2.9) was significantly higher compared to those who did not (M = 6.7, S = 3.0). Out of the 393 participants, 67.7%, 55%, 37.4%, 45%, and 49.1% were willing to perform Hands-Only CPR on family members or relatives, strangers, trauma victims, children, and elderly people, respectively. There were significant associations (P < .001) between knowledge and willing to perform Hands-Only CPR on family members or relatives (OR = 1.32, 95% CI 1.43, 1.43), strangers (OR = 1.31, 95% CI 1.21, 1.42), trauma victims (OR = 1.21, 95% CI 1.12, 1.31), children (OR = 1.28, 95% CI 1.19, 1.39), and elderly people (OR = 1.36 95% CI 1.25, 1.48).Based on this study, knowledge on Hands-Only CPR among local college students is not encouraging. Not many know where to attend such courses. There was significant association between knowledge and willingness to perform Hands-Only CPR.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:This study aimed to investigate the perceptions of elderly caregivers in Chinese nursing homes (NHs) and associated factors with regard to knowledge, attitude about elderly and self-efficacy. SETTING:A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted in 12 NHs in Liaoning Province, China. PARTICIPANTS:A total of 403 caregivers from 12 NHs were surveyed. OUTCOME MEASURES:Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire composed of the Palmore's Facts on Aging Quiz I, Kogan's Attitude Towards Old People Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale and background characteristics of participants. An average score for knowledge, attitude and self-efficacy was calculated. Differences across groups were evaluated using Student's t-test and analysis of variance. Multivariable linear regression models were established to estimate the associated factors. RESULTS:The participating caregivers reported a relative low score on knowledge about the elderly (10.42±2.79), attitude towards old people (127.85±14.36) and self-efficacy (27.12±4.9). Multivariable regression analysis showed that respondents who had high educational level (?=0.212, 95%?CI 0.193 to 0.824), received prejob training (?=0.193, 95%?CI 0.081 to 1.169) and had high job satisfaction (general satisfaction: ?=0.345, 95%?CI 0.223 to 1.875; very satisfied: ?=0.322, 95%?CI 0.210 to 1.283) gave a positive rating on knowledge. Caregivers who were employed as formal staff (?=0.155, 95%?CI 0.116 to 1.670), earned a high income (?=0.214, 95%?CI 0.117 to 1.461) and had an interest in working with the elderly (?=0.141, 95%?CI 0.088 to 1.508) tended to develop a positive attitude towards the elderly. However, caregivers who were female (?=-0.110, 95%?CI -1.751 to -0.080) and had long work experience (?=-0.130, 95%?CI -1.527 to -0.110) developed negative perception. Caregivers who were older (?=0.215, 95%?CI 0.139 to 1.027), received prejob training (?=0.143, 95%?CI 0.113 to 1.024), had an interest in working with the elderly (?=0.154, 95%?CI 0.114 to 1.015), had high job satisfaction (?=0.177, 95%?CI 0.116 to 1.223) and perceived better health status for the elderly (partial disability: ?=0.437, 95%?CI 0.259 to 1.600; no disability: ?=0.288, 95%?CI 0.153 to 1.211) gave a positive rating on self-efficacy. CONCLUSION:Knowledge about the elderly, attitude towards old people and self-efficacy of elderly caregivers in Chinese NHs were at low levels. Some targeted intervention programmes, such as conducting professional training for aged care and a performance-based payment system, should be given priority to improve these attributes.
