What this trial studies

This study aims to evaluate how simulation training affects self-confidence and stress levels among nursing students during patient interventions. By using a randomized control design, students will be divided into experimental and control groups, with the experimental group receiving simulation-based training while the control group undergoes traditional face-to-face education. The study will assess the effectiveness of simulation in enhancing clinical skills and coping mechanisms for stress in real-life scenarios. The findings could provide insights into improving nursing education and patient care.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are senior nursing students who are willing to participate in simulation training.

Not a fit: Students who do not participate in any simulation training will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance nursing students' self-confidence and reduce stress, leading to better patient care outcomes.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown positive outcomes with simulation training in nursing education, indicating that this approach is supported by existing evidence.
