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.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

Researchers compare three ways of teaching patient safety to first-year nursing students: Pecha Kucha presentations, realistic clinical scenarios, and traditional lectures. About 98 students at one university take part, and each is randomly assigned to one method. The study measures changes in students' attitudes toward medical errors using a questionnaire before and after the lessons, and also asks how satisfied students were with the teaching.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Patient safety education delivered through Pecha Kucha presentations or clinical scenarios
What this could lead to
If one teaching method works better, nursing schools could adopt it to help future nurses respond more openly to medical errors.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-school study of first-year students, so results may not apply to other nursing programs or to real clinical practice. Attitudes measured on a questionnaire may not reflect actual behavior.
