Simulation or video? study seeks best way to train nurses on tube care
NCT ID NCT07541846
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at two training methods—simulation-based and video-based—to teach nurses how to care for nasogastric tubes. About 83 nurses from two hospitals in Kirkuk will be randomly assigned to one of the two training types or a control group. The goal is to see which method boosts nurses' confidence, satisfaction, and hands-on skills, helping improve patient safety and care quality.
