Video-based self-check for neonatal resuscitation skills in fourth-year midwifery students

Official title: The Effectiveness of Video-Based Self-Assessment in Simulation-Based Neonatal Resuscitation Skills Training

Run by Saglik Bilimleri Universitesi · NCT07867652 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study tests whether watching and reflecting on videos of their own neonatal resuscitation practice helps fourth-year midwifery students improve skills, judgment, satisfaction, and confidence.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Eligible participants are active fourth-year midwifery students at Hamidiye Faculty of Health Sciences who regularly attend relevant courses and provide informed consent.

Probably not a fit

Students who have prior neonatal resuscitation or simulation training, or who miss sessions, may derive little or no benefit from the intervention.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

The study uses a simulation-based training program for neonatal resuscitation delivered over eight weeks, followed by standardized simulation practice and debriefing. Participants are fourth-year midwifery students who consent to participate and are assigned to groups according to the research design. The intervention centers on video-based self-assessment, while outcomes include resuscitation skills, clinical judgment, student satisfaction, and self-confidence. A power analysis informed a sample size of at least 50 participants, with a 1:1 allocation ratio. The study is conducted at the University of Health Sciences in Istanbul with Saglik Bilimleri University as lead sponsor.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could enhance neonatal resuscitation training by boosting skill proficiency and confidence among future clinicians.

How similar studies have gone: Prior research suggests that simulation-based education can improve resuscitation skills, but the added value of video-based self-assessment in this exact setting is being tested.
