Summary

The study aimed to investigate the impact of simulation-based training on nursing students' perception of positive birth and natural birthing approaches.

Detailed description

This study aimed to determine whether simulation-based training could improve the perception of positive birth and natural birthing approaches among fourth-year nursing students. The study used a randomized controlled quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test. The intervention group received hybrid simulation, while the other received video-modeling training. The study used several tools to assess the impact of the training, including the Demographic Information Form, Natural Birth Approach Questionnaire, Student Satisfaction and Confidence in Learning Scale, Satisfaction with Education Methods Questionnaire, and Natural Birth Approach Clinical Skills Guide.

Conditions

• Childbirth Problems

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	hybrid simulation	During the hybrid simulation, a student and a standardized patient participated. The patient wore a wearable pregnancy model. Before the start of the "Natural Birth Approach Scenario, a pre-briefing session was conducted. The student's performance during the simulation was recorded on video, and each simulation lasted approximately 30 minutes. After the simulation, a debriefing session was held with the student, and feedback was given. Scales were used to evaluate the implementation of the practices.
OTHER	video-modeling	The students in the group had the opportunity to learn through an educational video that followed the "Natural Birth Approach Scenario." Afterward, they put their knowledge into practice and were evaluated using the Birth Approach Clinical Skills Guide. A feedback session followed the practice session. Finally, they were assessed using scales to measure their performance.
