Could high-tech manikins make future nurses better at vaccinating children?

NCT ID NCT07678190

First seen Jul 01, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026

Summary

This study compares two ways of teaching nursing students how to vaccinate children: high-fidelity simulation (using a lifelike manikin and a vaccine-hesitancy scenario) versus standard lab practice with a basic manikin. Researchers measure students' knowledge, hands-on skills, satisfaction, and confidence. The goal is to see if the more realistic training leads to better learning outcomes.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

High-fidelity simulation training

What this could lead to

If effective, this training method could be adopted in nursing education to better prepare students for real-world vaccination challenges.

What could go wrong

This is a small, single-center educational study, not a clinical treatment trial. Results may not apply to other settings or translate to improved patient outcomes.
