Summary

This study tested whether using puzzles to teach safe intravenous (IV) therapy helps nursing students learn and remember better than traditional lectures. 81 third-year nursing students were randomly assigned to puzzle-based or standard training. Researchers measured their knowledge, motivation, and how much they retained over time.
