High-Fidelity Simulation and Longitudinal Outcomes in Novice Nurses (HFS-NOVA) (HFS-NOVA)
Divergent Trajectories of Clinical Performance and Psychological Outcomes in Novice Nurses Following High-Fidelity Simulation: A Prospective Longitudinal Cohort Study
This study examined whether high-fidelity simulation (HFS) training - a realistic, hands-on learning method using advanced patient mannequins - can improve both technical skills and psychological well-being in newly graduated nurses.
Seventy novice nurses at a tertiary medical centre in Taiwan participated in a structured HFS session focused on airway crisis management. Six outcomes were measured at three time points: before training (T1), immediately after training (T2), and three months later (T3). These outcomes included: airway management knowledge, clinical performance, learning attitude, self-efficacy (confidence in clinical abilities), nursing learning resilience (ability to cope with professional challenges), and psychological well-being.

Detaljerad beskrivning
A prospective longitudinal repeated-measures design was employed. The HFS programme was developed and implemented in accordance with INACSL Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice. The curriculum used SimMan 3G (Laerdal Medical) and followed a three-phase structure: pre-briefing (10 minutes), scenario phase involving acute respiratory failure management (20 minutes), and structured debriefing using the Debriefing for Meaningful Learning (DML) framework (10 minutes).
Statistical analysis used Generalised Estimating Equations (GEE) with identity link function and exchangeable working correlation matrix to model longitudinal trajectories while accounting for repeated measures and participant attrition.
The study was conducted at Tri-Service General Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan, between March and December 2025. IRB approval was obtained prior to data collection (No. C202505016, 18 March 2025).

Experimentell: HFS Intervention Group
All enrolled novice nurses received a standardised 40-minute high-fidelity simulation session focused on airway crisis management, comprising pre-briefing, scenario, and structured debriefing phases.
|
A standardised 40-minute HFS session using SimMan 3G (Laerdal Medical) comprising three phases: (1) Pre-briefing (10 min): environmental orientation, fiction contract, and psychological safety emphasis.
(2) Scenario phase (20 min): each participant acted as primary decision-maker for a patient with acute respiratory failure, performing assessment, oxygen titration, airway suctioning, and care escalation.
(3) Structured debriefing (10 min): facilitator-led debrief using the Debriefing for Meaningful Learning (DML) framework.

Clinical Performance
Tidsram: Baseline (T1), immediately post-simulation (T2, approximately 1 day after T1), and 3-month follow-up (T3)
|
Assessed using the 40-item Clinical Performance Checklist (CPC) scored by two independent raters (Cohen's κ = 0.88).
Higher scores indicate better procedural performance.
Range: 0-40.

Self-Efficacy
Tidsram: Baseline (T1), immediately post-simulation (T2), and 3-month follow-up (T3)
|
Assessed using a 10-item General Self-Efficacy Scale measuring confidence in managing clinical airway challenges (Cronbach's α = 0.922).
Range: 10-40.
