Simulation Applications on the Level of Pressure Injury Knowledge and Evaluation

When the literature is examined, it is seen that the pressure injury knowledge and evaluation levels of nursing students are low. Today, innovative approaches have started to be introduced to nursing education in proportion to the development of technology. Simulation applications are also seen as one of these innovative approaches. In our study, it is aimed to examine the effect of pressure injury training to be given using high-reality standardized patient use and a medium-reality simulation model on the knowledge and evaluation level of intern nursing students. Students (n = 250) will be assigned blindly to the experimental and control groups using a simple randomization method, and then pressure injury information and assessment trainings will be given to the experimental group with a medium-reality simulation model on a standardized patient for the control group for 4 weeks. After 2 weeks, the final test will be performed, and the data will be assigned to blind groups. It will be evaluated by the researcher.
