What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tested whether using VR goggles helps midwifery students learn basic clinical skills better than traditional training. 128 students were split into two groups: one used VR simulations, the other had standard lab practice. Researchers measured skill performance and confidence through exams and surveys to see if VR 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
VR Goggle-Assisted Simulation Training
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that VR training is a better way to teach midwifery skills, leading to more confident and capable students.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with 128 students at one university. Results may not apply to other settings, and VR might not be better than traditional methods.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Currently enrolled as an undergraduate midwifery student at Gaziantep University. * Registered in or scheduled to take the "Basic Clinical Skills" course during the study period. * Aged 18 years or older. * Able to provide informed consent and willing to participate throughout the study. * Has no previous formal training with virtual reality (VR) simulation related to midwifery clinical skills. * Able to use VR goggles safely (no known conditions that prevent VR use, such as severe motion sickness). Exclusion Criteria: * A diagnosed visual, neurological, or vestibular disorder that may interfere with VR use (e.g., epilepsy, severe vertigo). * A history of severe motion sickness symptoms triggered by digital screens or VR environments. * Participated previously in a pilot version of the VR training module. * Currently taking a leave of absence or not actively attending coursework.
