What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study tests whether a gamified metaverse-based training program helps nursing students learn more effectively about preventing and managing pressure ulcers (bedsores). Sixty second-year nursing students will be randomly assigned to either standard classroom teaching or standard teaching plus two weeks of metaverse training. Researchers will measure changes in knowledge, self-efficacy, and perceptions of the metaverse immediately after training and one month later.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Gamified metaverse-based educational application
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that virtual reality training helps nursing students learn better about preventing bedsores.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 students. It measures knowledge and confidence, not actual patient outcomes, so real-world benefits are uncertain.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

Participants

About 60 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start
