Can a Four-Step teaching model boost nursing Students' catheter skills?
NCT ID NCT07732049
First seen Jul 28, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This trial compares three ways to teach nursing students how to collect a sterile urine sample from a urinary catheter: Peyton's Four-Step Teaching Model delivered by an instructor, the same model delivered by a trained peer educator, or standard demonstration. First-year nursing students with no prior experience will be randomly assigned to one of the three groups. Researchers will measure their knowledge, skill performance, and self-confidence after training to see which approach works best.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Peyton's Four-Step Teaching Model and peer education
- What this could lead to
- If effective, these teaching methods could improve how nursing students learn clinical skills, potentially leading to better patient care.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, single-center trial with 75 students, so results may not apply broadly. The study measures skills in a simulation lab, not real patient settings.
