Purpose: This study aimed to develop a program using the Room of Errors (ROE) technique to enhance the patient nursing student’s safety competencies and determine the effectiveness of simulation-based education. Methods: We conducted a methodological study using the ADDIE model for program development (Molenda, 2003). During the ROE activities, students identified errors that threatened patient safety. The program's effectiveness was evaluated in the implementation phase by measuring students' confidence in patient safety using a one-group pretest-posttest design. Results: Participants' satisfaction with the ROE program was 4.90 ± 0.36 on a 5-point Likert scale. The pre- and post-ROE program patient safety confidence scores (H-PEPSS) were statistically significant, increasing from 3.62 ± 0.54 to 4.19 ± 0.60. Participants' subjective evaluations were generally positive, indicating increased insight, confidence, and vigilance in error prevention. Conclusion: Based on this study’s significant findings, it would be beneficial to encourage students and healthcare providers to utilize ROE programs to enhance patient safety competencies.

Data were collected using a self-reported questionnaire and analyzed through descriptive statistics and the independent t-test and Mann-Whitney U test using SPSS/WIN Statistics version 25.0. Results: After completing the “Room of Errors” simulation program, the participants’ score of intention and confidence in performance for patient safety management in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group. Conclusion: A “Room of Errors” simulation education program for nursing students effectively increased the intention and confidence in performance of nursing students in patient safety management.

The purpose of this study was to develop a nursing education program using Web-based simulation for the care of patients with intracranial pressure. An additional aim was to verify the effectiveness of nursing knowledge, problem-solving competency, a critical thinking disposition, and the expectation of learning transfer. Methods: This was an experimental study using repeated measures with a nonequivalent control group. The participants were senior nursing students, randomly assigned to experimental (n=30) and control (n=30) groups. The experimental group participated in a nursing education program that included Web-based lectures, pre-briefing, Web-based simulation, and debriefing, whereas the control group’s program included only Web-based lectures. Results: A significant difference was found between the experimental and control groups in problem-solving competency (F=5.84, p=.005), critical thinking disposition (F=4.25, p=.021), and the expectation of learning transfer (t=2.30, p<.025). Also, a significant interaction between time and group was found in problem-solving competency and critical thinking disposition. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the education program using Web-based simulation positively affected nursing students’ problem-solving competency, critical thinking disposition, and the expectation of learning transfer. Therefore, this program can be considered a valuable aid in educating nursing students.

Purpose: This study aimed to development and test the effects of patient safety/infection control simulation program based on a brain-based learning framework for nursing students. Methods: This pilot study used a one group pre-post test design. The study was conducted in one university in Korea. Participants were recruited using a convenience sample. Fifteen nursing students participated in this study. Results: The levels of perception of importance of patient safety management (Z=3.41, p=.001), confidence on patient safety (Z=3.30, p=.001), attitude toward personal protective equipment (Z=3.10, p=.002), and efficacy of personal protective equipment (Z=3.35, p=.001) were significantly increased. Conclusion: The application of brain-based learning framework in nursing simulation could be an effective education for nursing students.

Purpose: Room of Errors is a little-known method in Korea, effective for patient safety education. This study aimed to examine nursing students’ recognition of pre-staged medical errors while working as individuals or in a team. Methods: Thirty-four errors for a pre-op care scenario and thirty errors for a post-op care scenario were pre-set in two simulated patient rooms. Fifty-six nursing students randomly participated as individuals or as a team in one of two “Room of Errors” to find as many errors as possible within a certain time. The evaluation of error detection and debriefing occurred immediately following the simulation. Results: “Wrong patient name on wrist band” (77-100%) and “bedside rails down” (91-100%) were the most frequently identified errors by both individuals and teams. Few students found “injection of a drug to which the patient is allergic” (0-9%) and “administration of a contraindicated drug to the patient” (0-7.7%). The performance of students working in a team was much better than those working alone. Conclusion: This study found that “Room of Errors” provided very experiential and practical learning to nursing students in identifying simulated patient threats. The method is also useful for interprofessional patient safety education to develop teamwork and communication.

Purpose: This was a qualitative study using a phenomenological research method. It was conducted to investigate the essential meaning of nursing students’ experiences participating in simulation education with standardized patients. Methods: This study’s research participants included 16 senior employees in the nursing department of two universities. They had experiences participating in simulation education with standardized patients.

Purpose: This study aimed to clarify the effects of simulation-based practice using a standardized patient on nursing students’ problem-solving capacity, self-efficacy for therapeutic communications, and confidence in clinical performance. Methods: We adopted a one-group pretest–posttest experimental design. We examined changes in the students’ problem-solving capacity, self-efficacy for therapeutic communications, and confidence in clinical performance before and after simulation-based practice and after clinical practicum. Results: The scores for problem-solving capacity increased from 159.28 before simulation-based practice to 263.02 after it and 161.99 after clinical practicum, but there was no statistical significance(p=.775, p=.339). The scores for self-efficacy for therapeutic communications rose with statistical significance from 120.78 before simulation-based practice to 126.30 after it (p= .017), but fell to 120.52 after clinical practicum. The scores for confidence in clinical performance increased with statistical significance from 54.98 before simulation-based practice to 59.42 after it (p=.008) and 58.50 after clinical practicum (p<.001). Conclusion: We confirmed that simulation-based practice with a standardized patient offers students hands-on experience of a clinical situation and, thereby, enhances their problem-solving capacity, self-efficacy for therapeutic communications, and confidence in clinical performance.

The scenarios were analyzed on the basis of 4 algorithm: initial assessment, neurologic assessment, IICP nursing assessmnet, reassessment of IICP signs, and monitoring vital signs. Conclusion: The simulation scenarios developed in this study can provide students with opportunities to practice nursing for patients with IICP, Further, this scenario may provide instructors with a systematic and sustainable simulation education model for an instructor.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of simulation training using video debriefing on the self-efficacy, problem solving ability, and learning satisfaction of nursing students. Method: The study design was control group pre-and post-test non-synchronized experimental design. The sample included two teams of 138 nursing students. The experimental group provided feedback after the simulation was run, and then the team was debriefed through the video recorded video in the debriefing room, and the control group performed the oral debriefing. This study was conducted from November 10, 2015 to December 10, 2015, using descriptive statistics, χ²-test and t-test. Results: The scores of the self-efficacy, problem- solving process performance, and learning satisfaction were higher than those of the group who received the video debriefing (experimental group) than those who received the oral debriefing training (control group). Conclusion: It has been found that debriefing using video in the simulation training has a positive effect on self-efficacy, ability to perform problem solving process and improvement of learning satisfaction, so it can be utilized as an effective teaching and learning strategy and also helps strengthen nursing capacity.
