This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Summary

This study explores whether a web-based gamification app can improve nursing students' knowledge and skills in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). About 86 students will use the app, which includes practice questions, a timer, and a leaderboard to track scores. Researchers will measure knowledge before and after the training, and assess skill retention later. The goal is to see if gamified learning leads to better long-term recall and practical ability compared to traditional methods.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
web-based gamification application
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could make CPR training more engaging and improve knowledge retention among nursing students.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center study focused on educational outcomes, not patient survival. Results may not apply to other settings or populations.
