About this trial

Introduction and Purpose Advancements in Nursing Education: The integration of technology, specifically video-supported training, is a significant development in nursing education.

Focus on Nasogastric Tube (NGT) Placement: Proper placement of NGT is a critical skill in nursing. Traditional methods alone may not suffice in acquiring and maintaining this skill.

Objective: Evaluate the impact of video-supported self-assessment on the knowledge and skills of nursing students regarding NGT placement.

Hypotheses Video-supported self-assessment increases students' knowledge about NGT placement.

Video-supported self-assessment enhances students' skills in NGT placement. Materials and Methods Design: A randomized controlled pre-test and post-test experimental design. Ethics: Ethical approval will be obtained and registered with Clinical Trials ID.

Data Collection Tools:

FR.1 Personal Information Form: Demographic data collection. FR.2 NGT Placement Knowledge Test: 20 multiple-choice questions based on theoretical content.

FR.3 NGT Placement Skill Checklist: 51 steps evaluating correct, incorrect, and unobserved applications.

Data Collection Process Initial Phase: Explanation of the study, informed consent, and completion of the FR.1 form and FR.2 pre-test.

Traditional Teaching: A theoretical lecture on NGT placement.

Practical Application:

Experimental Group: Practical demonstration recorded and shared with students for self-assessment.

Control Group: Practical demonstration recorded but not shared with students. Post-Intervention Assessment: FR.2 post-test and an OSCE exam based on FR.3 for both groups after one week.

Data Analysis Software: SPSS 23.0. Methods: T-tests, Chi-square tests, Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses depending on data distribution.

Statistical Significance: p\<0.05. Study Limitations Scope: Limited to first-year nursing students at one university. Interaction: Potential interaction between intervention and control group students.

Ethical Principles Approval: Obtained from the Ethics Committee and the university. Participant Rights: Informed consent, respect for autonomy, confidentiality, and adherence to the Helsinki Declaration.

This summary captures the essence of the research study described in the original document, focusing on the purpose, methods, data collection, analysis, limitations, and ethical considerations.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

FR.1 Personal Information Form:

This form was prepared by the researchers and consists of 15 questions questioning the demographic characteristics of the students such as age, gender, socioeconomic level, etc.

Time frame
3months

Secondary outcomes

1

FR.2 Nasogastric Tube Placement Knowledge Test:

A knowledge test was created by the researcher in line with the scope and objectives of the theoretical course content of NGS placement prepared in line with the literature (Lynn, P. (2018)). The knowledge test consists of 20 multiple-choice questions with five options that question the information required for NGS placement. The lowest score possible from this test is 0 (zero), and the highest is 20. The distribution of questions in the knowledge test was prepared according to the target behaviors within the subject.

Time frame
3months

Other outcomes

1

FR.3 Nasogastric Tube Placement Skill Checklist:

It includes the materials to be used in the Nasogastric Tube Placement application and the steps to ensure that the application is carried out correctly. The checklist prepared by the researcher consists of 51 steps. Each procedure step will be evaluated as "Correct Application", "Incorrect Application" and "Not Observed" and each will be scored considering the characteristics of the procedure.

Time frame
3months
