Abstract
Introduction: Various studies have shown the effectiveness of simulation in educating nursing students. However, there has been no study investigating the effects of using simulations on nursing practices.
Aim and Method: The aim of this study was to measure the effect of simulation and video education on nursing students in terms of their ability to distinguish lung sounds and determine appropriate nursing interventions. The research was designed as a quasi-experimental study. The data were collected from 56 first-year students studying in the nursing department of a university in Turkey.
Results: When the students' ability to distinguish the sounds was analyzed, the simulated model was found to be effective in terms of normal lung sound and stridor (p<0.05). When planning appropriate nursing interventions was compared there was found to be no difference between planning for normal lung sounds, wheezing and stridor (p>0.05).
Conclusion and Suggestions: It was found that the simulation model was more effective than video in teaching nurses to distinguish lung sounds, while there was no difference between the two methods in how students determined what nursing interventions were appropriate. It is recommended that simulations be used for teaching nursing students how to distinguish sounds, while video training, which is more cost-effective, should be used in teaching appropriate nursing interventions.
