ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is exploring whether using virtual reality (VR) technology can help first-year nursing students learn more effectively about giving subcutaneous injections, which are injections given just under the skin. The study will compare two groups of students: one group will use VR goggles to watch a training video about the injection process, while the other group will receive the standard education through traditional teaching methods. The researchers want to find out if the VR approach helps students understand the material better and perform the injection skill more effectively.

To participate in this trial, students need to be first-year nursing students who are mentally and physically able to use VR technology. Participants will take a knowledge test and a skills test before and after the training to see how much they have learned. If you're interested in helping improve nursing education and have the right qualifications, this study could be a great opportunity for you!
