About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of Delirium Simulation Education on the Self-efficacy and Critical Thinking Skill of Nurses in Intensive Care Unit- Randomized Clinical Trial

Delirium is a common symptom in the intensive care unit, which greatly affects the prognosis of critically ill patients and increases medical costs. Although many studies have implemented preventive measures, they have not been able to significantly improve the prevalence of delirium, because many medical measures devises in the intensive care unit are still necessary for patients. Therefore, early detection of patients with delirium symptoms, risk factors, and immediate Delirium management is important. Nurses are the first line of clinically important roles in assessing delirium symptoms. So, design a delirium simulation education for nurses is important.

Read the detailed description

Through literature review, the investigators found that research on delirium in the intensive care unit simulated education interventions are insufficient, and longitudinal studies to explore how long the effect can be maintained or delirium assessment and delirium management are designed dependent on theory are lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of delirium simulation education on delirium knowledge, delirium critical thinking, delirium care self-efficacy and satisfaction among nurses in intensive care units, and to explore the influencing factors.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • education strategyOther

    The educational course of the experimental group will last for 6 weeks, including classroom teaching and simulated situational teaching. The classroom teaching will be divided into 3 times, a course of about 2 hours at a time; after the class, simulated situational teaching is also arranged for 4 hours at a time/ Caring for many patients with delirium, and performing related research. The simulated scenario lesson plan plans to design 3 major themes (delirium assessment, delirium risk factors, delirium prevention, each major theme will have 2 scenarios, each The simulation teaching exercise starts with pre-briefing, and after the end, debriefing reflection and discussion with the students.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Experimental(simulation education group)ExperimentalThe experimental group (simulation teaching group), the content of simulation teaching is based on the simulation model, and includes five important elements: Instructor, student, educational practice, simulation situation design and characteristics, and result that design covering the four stages of learning, concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization and action experience, and design lesson plans, which include delirium assessment and delirium risk factor detection. Delirium prevention and management (PADIS guidelines). The main objectives of the teaching plan design of the experimental group are: to be able to confirm delirium by assessment of the Delirium Assessment Scale; to confirm the risk factors by the history taking; to propose treatment and measures according to the assessment results. Secondary goals: Be able to perform handovers.
Receives: Other: education strategy
Control(traditional group)No interventionNurses in the control group did not receive simulated situational teaching, but received classroom teaching 3 times (once every other week) (delirium assessment, risk factor assessment; PADIS treatment), each session of about 2 hours. In order to avoid inconsistent teaching content, the control group and the experimental group are not to be together in classroom.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Effectiveness change of delirium care knowledge after simulation teaching

    Effectiveness of participants with simulation teaching as assessed by delirium knowledge questioner, change from baseline in knowledge scores on delirium knowledge questioner at 3,6,12 months

    Measured: change from baseline in delirium knowledge and 3, 6, 12 months after intervention

  2. Effectiveness change of delirium care self-efficacy after simulation teaching

    Effectiveness of participants with simulation teaching as assessed by delirium care self-efficacy questioner, change from baseline in self-efficacy scores on delirium care self-efficacy questioner at 3,6,12 months

    Measured: change from baseline in delirium care self-efficacy and 3, 6, 12 months after intervention

  3. Effectiveness change of delirium critical thinking skills after simulation teaching

    Effectiveness of participants with simulation teaching as assessed by delirium critical thinking skills questioner, change from baseline in critical thinking skills scores on delirium critical thinking skills questioner at 3,6,12 months

    Measured: change from baseline in delirium critical thinking skills and 3, 6, 12 months after intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing education strategy in people with Self Efficacy and Nursing Caries, run by Chang Gung Memorial Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effectiveness change of delirium care knowledge after simulation teaching (time frame: change from baseline in delirium knowledge and 3, 6, 12 months after intervention). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Jul 2022.
