The Impact of Simulation Game on Nursing Students’ Performance Skills for Intravenous Injection via NSS Lock
Keywords:
intravenous injection, simulation game, nursing studentAbstract
The quasi-experimental research aimed to study the effectiveness of the simulation game of intravenous injection via normal saline lock (NSS lock) on nursing students’ performance skills of intravenous injection, and to evaluate the nursing students’ perception of simulation game. The participants were 52 third year nursing students who were with no experience of intravenous injection. The research instruments were simulation game, performance skill assessment form, and perception questionnaire. They showed a demonstration of intravenous injection via NSS lock. Then they learned by playing the simulation game and completed the perception questionnaire of simulation game. After that, they showed a demonstration of and after learning were evaluated by research assistants. Descriptive statistic, Wilcoxon signed ranks test, was used to analyze the data.
The results showed that the mean scores of posttest were significantly higher than that of pretest (p< .01). After learning, the mean of times’ period for practice was significantly lower than that of before learning (p<.01). The score was divided into two steps that were instrument preparation and practice. For step of practice, the mean scores of posttest were significantly higher than that of pretest (p<.01), whereas there were not significant difference between mean scores of pretest and posttest in the step of instrument preparation (p>.05). The mean scores of students’ perception of simulation game was 4.49-4.87.
