NCT ID NCT07752537
First seen Aug 07, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether an educational escape room can help third-year nursing students learn to manage dehydration in children. Students work in teams to solve puzzles and clinical tasks about assessing hydration and choosing nursing actions, followed by a group discussion. The trial measures changes in their knowledge, teamwork, and anxiety levels to see if this game-based approach is more effective than traditional teaching.
