NCT ID NCT07670364

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether nursing students learn blood pressure monitoring better by practicing on a live actor (standardized patient) or a static manikin. Researchers will measure mental effort, skill accuracy, and student confidence. The goal is to find the best way to train nurses for real-world, high-pressure situations.
