Educational needs for virtual reality-based simulation training in the nursing care of adult respiratory patients: an explanatory sequential mixed-methods study.
Article in BMC medical education, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundWe aimed to ascertain the current state of and needs for virtual reality (VR)-based simulation training in the care of adult respiratory patients. Learning to care for patients with infectious respiratory disease is crucial in nurses' practical education. Thus, studies on the state of VR-based simulation-training are required.
methodsWe used an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design. The sample included 122 new nurses at two advanced general hospitals and five educators at a nursing college. The educational needs of virtual reality-based simulation education were measured by the tool developed in this study. Research data were collected from August 31 to September 26, 2022. Quantitative data were subjected to a descriptive analysis, while qualitative data were subjected to content analysis.
resultsThe new nurses in this study had a mean age of 24.51 years and total clinical experience of 11.18 months; 82.8% of the participants had experience in adult respiratory patient care, and 94.3% were aware of the need for this training. In the qualitative data analysis of six new nurses, all participants had experience with simulation training and were aware of its need. Moreover, all participants wanted repeated VR-based simulation training using real clinical cases. Regarding the qualitative data analysis of five nursing college educators, most of them had experience providing and receiving simulation training, and they were aware of its need in caring for respiratory patients. They reported the need for VR learning spaces that reflect the clinical environment, alongside sufficient duration and frequency of learning. Our findings could help develop simulation training programs for nursing students to assist adult respiratory patients.
conclusionsWe provide a basis for developing VR-based simulation training for respiratory care by studying the current state of and demand for nurses' VR-based simulation training. The results can contribute to improving the quality of nursing for adult respiratory patients.
