Performance Evaluation for Simulation-Based Practice: A Cardiac Code SimulationAssessment for Nursing Students.

摘要

The healthcare industry is increasingly integrating simulation-based training within the differentpractices of medicine, including nursing education. While considerable literature exists regarding the useof simulation-based training in nursing education, a major weakness in the literature is the absence ofbehavioral performance measures to help provide empirical evidence of effectiveness. The purpose of thisstudy was to demonstrate a behavioral evaluation instrument for measuring effectiveness in a nursingeducation simulation-based training exercise. The results of this study may guide nursing educationalspecialists and others in the healthcare industry on the development and incorporation of effectivebehavioral measures into their training curriculum.
