Simulation vs. lecture: which better prepares nurses for disaster care?
NCT ID NCT07491757
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how to best teach nursing students to care for a child trapped under rubble, focusing on fluid and electrolyte balance. 69 students were split into three groups: one got a 90-minute lecture, another got a 270-minute session combining lecture and simulation, and a third got no training. The goal was to see which method improved knowledge, confidence, and reduced anxiety the most.
