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 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.
