This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of immersive virtual reality (VR) training on nursing students' learning outcomes in phlebotomy skills. The study compares immersive VR-based simulation with traditional task trainer-based simulation.
A total sample of undergraduate nursing students is randomly assigned to either the experimental group (VR training) or the control group (task trainer training). The intervention focuses on improving self-efficacy, reducing anxiety, and enhancing clinical performance in venipuncture skills.
Outcomes are measured at three time points: pre-test, immediate post-test, and follow-up. Self-efficacy, anxiety, and clinical performance are assessed using validated scales.
The study seeks to determine whether immersive VR provides a more effective and engaging learning experience compared to conventional simulation methods in nursing education.
