AI tutor teaches nursing students to give shots – but does it work?
NCT ID NCT07253571
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether an artificial intelligence chatbot can improve how first-year nursing students learn to give intramuscular and subcutaneous injections. About 80 students will use the AI tool alongside their regular coursework. Researchers will measure their knowledge, clinical reasoning, and hands-on skills through tests and exams.
