Escape room training boosts nursing Students' CPR skills?
NCT ID NCT07336511
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test whether an escape room simulation can improve nursing students' clinical decision-making and teamwork attitudes regarding CPR. Sixty undergraduate nursing students will be randomly assigned to either an escape room simulation or traditional training. The researchers will measure changes in decision-making and teamwork scores immediately after training and again one month later.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Escape room simulation
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a more engaging way to train nursing students in CPR, potentially improving real-life emergency response.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 students at one university. Results may not apply to other settings, and the simulation may not translate to better real-world performance.
