Effects of a home-visit nursing simulation program for frailty prevention in older adults on nursing competencies: a quasi-experimental pre–post study
To evaluate the effects of a frailty-prevention simulation program on nursing students’ competencies, specifically clinical judgment, self-efficacy, and clinical performance.
Approach:
Key Findings:
Clinical judgment and clinical performance showed significant improvements after the simulation.
Self-efficacy did not show a statistically significant change.
Simulation quality was positively associated with clinical judgment and clinical performance.
Interpretation:
Home-visit simulation may enhance clinical judgment and performance in nursing education, while self-efficacy is more closely linked to satisfaction than simulation quality.
Limitations:
Limited to a single group of nursing students, which may affect generalizability.
Self-efficacy measurement did not show significant change.
Conclusion:
The study suggests that simulation-based education can be an effective strategy for improving nursing competencies related to frailty prevention.
An artificial intelligence–based optical coherence tomography pathway met noninferiority criteria for false-positive diabetic macular edema referrals and was associated with fewer referral decisions in a randomized clinical trial.
