The Effect of Blood and Blood Products Transfusion Training Based on the Flipped Classroom Model on Nursing Students

Blood is a living tissue with many vital functions that provide perfusion of organs. Therefore, blood transfusion is a tissue transplant and a complicated treatment method that is applied very frequently. Many reactions may develop during transfusion due to application errors. In this direction, it is necessary to increase the knowledge and skills of nursing students regarding safe blood transfusion during their undergraduate education. On the other hand, self-efficacy is a more comprehensive concept that includes the concepts of knowledge and skills, and self-efficacy perception is considered important in terms of indicating a level of professional development. It is important to use effective teaching methods to increase the knowledge and skills of students and to support their self-efficacy. The flipped classroom model is a teaching method that has the potential to change teaching and learning for nursing education. In the light of this information, this study was planned to determine the effect of education based on the flipped classroom model on the self-efficacy of senior nursing students regarding blood and blood product transfusion.
