2
00:00:13.375 --> 00:00:17.230
- Simulation is being increasingly
utilized in nursing education

3
00:00:17.817 --> 00:00:21.504
allowing students to integrate
classroom theory with nursing skills

4
00:00:21.566 --> 00:00:23.220
in a lifelike clinical setting.

5
00:00:23.343 --> 00:00:29.271
In fall 2011, NCSBN is kicking off
the National Simulation Study

6
00:00:29.429 --> 00:00:34.032
and landmark Multi-site Investigation
exploring the roles and outcomes

7
00:00:34.113 --> 00:00:36.996
of simulation in clinical
nursing education.

8
00:00:37.806 --> 00:00:41.051
This project is ground breaking when
it comes to nursing education

9
00:00:41.583 --> 00:00:45.403
as a simulation study of this magnitude
has never been implemented before.

10
00:00:50.708 --> 00:00:54.180
- [female voice] NCSBN's National
Simulation Study will observe

11
00:00:54.278 --> 00:00:57.299
the knowledge and clinical competency
outcomes of students who volunteered

12
00:00:57.311 --> 00:01:01.961
to participate when simulation technology
is used for clinical experiences.

13
00:01:03.443 --> 00:01:07.237
Clinical experience deals with real
patients while simulation is the process

14
00:01:07.445 --> 00:01:11.793
by which real life scenarios are
presented using computerized mannequins.

15
00:01:13.037 --> 00:01:15.664
These state of the art mannequins
can be programmed to respond

16
00:01:15.796 --> 00:01:19.737
to clinical situations in a manner similar
to human patients.

17
00:01:21.627 --> 00:01:24.916
The study will follow nursing students
from 10 different schools

18
00:01:25.005 --> 00:01:28.912
and determine the impact simulation
has on educational experience.

19
00:01:29.482 --> 00:01:33.245
This will be done through testing
nursing knowledge, review of grade

20
00:01:33.245 --> 00:01:38.161
point averages and NCLEX scores
and yearly competency assessments.

21
00:01:39.844 --> 00:01:42.017
As student volunteers
complete their education,

22
00:01:42.026 --> 00:01:45.233
the study will stick with them
in the professional world to

23
00:01:45.279 --> 00:01:48.806
monitor their progress as newly
graduating nursing professionals.

24
00:01:50.206 --> 00:01:53.312
- Not being able to predict what's
gonna happen, not being able

25
00:01:53.349 --> 00:01:55.652
to predict what the patient's gonna
say or how they are gonna react

26
00:01:55.718 --> 00:01:59.786
to your care really gives you a
part of perspective of, of what to

27
00:01:59.786 --> 00:02:02.922
expect and just to give you a
little bit more experience as well.

28
00:02:03.576 --> 00:02:06.152
- You can learn a lot here and you
can do a lot more things in SimLab

29
00:02:06.152 --> 00:02:08.510
because they're not real people that
you can't do in a hospital setting.

30
00:02:08.510 --> 00:02:11.970
You as the nursing student
who is acting as a nursing

31
00:02:12.020 --> 00:02:15.561
sim and they can call the
doctor if they need something

32
00:02:16.211 --> 00:02:18.369
when you're in clinical setting,
your nurse you are following,

33
00:02:18.483 --> 00:02:19.603
is the one who is gonna call the doctor.

34
00:02:20.189 --> 00:02:24.473
- In simulation, that student can
come in and act like a nurse.

35
00:02:25.704 --> 00:02:29.343
Faculty can act like doctors.
They can act like family members.

36
00:02:29.372 --> 00:02:32.619
It's a great scenario for the
student to really get into the

37
00:02:32.626 --> 00:02:37.126
role that that student will be
in when he or she graduates.

38
00:02:38.573 --> 00:02:40.853
- [female voice] Student volunteers who
choose to participate in the study

39
00:02:40.853 --> 00:02:43.134
will be participated into three groups.

40
00:02:44.824 --> 00:02:47.291
The first group or the
Control Group will spend

41
00:02:47.410 --> 00:02:51.379
10% or less of their clinical time in
simulation which is the same amount

42
00:02:51.512 --> 00:02:55.123
of simulation that students currently
receive in nursing programs.

43
00:02:56.757 --> 00:03:00.993
The second group will spend 25% of
their clinical time in simulation.

44
00:03:01.072 --> 00:03:06.186
And the third group will spend 50%
of their clinical time in simulation.

45
00:03:08.957 --> 00:03:10.898
These groups will be randomized equally.

46
00:03:11.765 --> 00:03:14.051
Study participants will
not have the option to

47
00:03:14.086 --> 00:03:16.688
select the groups they are
in, rather participants

48
00:03:16.764 --> 00:03:19.158
will be randomly placed
in the Control Group, the

49
00:03:19.287 --> 00:03:24.273
25% Simulation Group, or
the 50% simulation group.

50
00:03:25.403 --> 00:03:29.110
All students will have both
simulation and clinical experiences.

51
00:03:30.517 --> 00:03:34.357
After randomization, participating
students will attend simulation

52
00:03:34.357 --> 00:03:37.384
and clinical experiences
according to the study schedule.

53
00:03:38.806 --> 00:03:42.221
The schedule will be customized at
each participating nursing school.

54
00:03:43.921 --> 00:03:47.057
In order to track the results
of the study, participants will

55
00:03:47.241 --> 00:03:50.942
need to complete surveys and be
assessed for clinical competency.

56
00:03:52.578 --> 00:03:55.279
A specially selected and
trained study team will

57
00:03:55.279 --> 00:03:57.715
conduct the study at each
participating school.

58
00:03:58.895 --> 00:04:02.283
Members of the study team will be
responsible for implementing the study

59
00:04:02.940 --> 00:04:06.215
and ensuring that participants are
comfortable and fully knowledgeable

60
00:04:06.215 --> 00:04:07.732
about the study and their progress.

61
00:04:09.257 --> 00:04:13.210
The study teams will provide a high level
of oversight to ensure each school

62
00:04:13.258 --> 00:04:17.563
and participants are acting in ordinance
with the study guidelines and goals.

63
00:04:19.787 --> 00:04:23.102
- By the end of the National Simulation
Study, researchers will have a

64
00:04:23.247 --> 00:04:26.647
better understanding of the role of
simulation in nursing education.

65
00:04:27.508 --> 00:04:31.223
Remember, the study is voluntary,
but it is only through

66
00:04:31.276 --> 00:04:34.980
student volunteers stepping forward
to assist researchers that

67
00:04:34.980 --> 00:04:38.323
we can understand how to best
utilize instructional methods to

68
00:04:38.377 --> 00:04:41.726
impact the way nursing students
are educated in the future.
