An Evaluation of the Use of Low-Fidelity and High-Fidelity Mannequins in Clinical Simulations in a Module Preparing Final Year Children's and General Nursing Students for Internship Placement.
Internationally, the use of simulation-learning environments in nursing education has escalated over the last number of years. Simulations have been recognized as providing clinical opportunities for student nurses to gain experience in a safe and controlled learning environment. A module specifical...

Simulations have been recognized as providing clinical opportunities for student nurses to gain experience in a safe and controlled learning environment. A module specifically preparing fourth year children's and general nursing students for internship was developed. Preparation work for these simulation sessions included a video for the students to watch which demonstrated evidence-based care using sample simulations. This research aims to evaluate two simulation scenarios, using low-fidelity and high-fidelity mannequins for children's nursing students as part of a nursing module preparing them for internship practice placement. This mixed-methods evaluation survey of students was conducted in one School of Nursing in a Higher Education Institute in Ireland in the academic year 2021–2022. A simulated learning package was created using a partnership approach with members from the Higher Education Institute and the clinical learning site and piloted with 39 students. This was evaluated using an anonymous, online questionnaire with 17 student responses. An ethical exemption was granted for this evaluation. All students reported the use of the simulations, including the pre-simulation video as beneficial to enhance their learning and to prepare them for internship. The use of low-fidelity and high-fidelity mannequins enhanced their learning process. Students recommended implementing further simulations throughout their programme to enhance their learning experiences. The findings of this evaluation can provide guidance to aid future development of interactive simulations in preparing students for practice placements. Both low fidelity and high fidelity have their places in simulation and education, depending on the scenario and associated learning outcomes. Collaboration between academia and clinical practice is crucial, to bridge the theory-practice gap and demonstrate a positive relationship between staff in both settings. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
