Can a wearable ostomy model boost nursing Students' stoma care skills?
NCT ID NCT06826404
First seen Aug 07, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026
Summary
This trial investigates whether using a wearable ostomy model with a standardized patient improves stoma care skills and learning satisfaction in nursing students compared to a low-fidelity simulator. About 102 nursing students who have completed certain coursework will be randomly assigned to one of two training methods. After training, their stoma care skills and satisfaction levels will be measured to see if the more realistic simulation makes a difference.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Training with a wearable ostomy model and standardized patient, compared to a low-fidelity simulator
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this training approach could improve how nursing students learn stoma care, potentially leading to better patient care and student satisfaction.
- What could go wrong
- This is a single study with a specific student group, so results may not apply broadly. The outcomes are based on skill checklists and self-reported satisfaction, which may not reflect real-world performance.
