Nurse Training

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test whether an AI-assisted design thinking workshop can improve empathetic communication in undergraduate nursing students at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the workshop improve students' empathy, creativity, collaboration, problem-solving, and patient-centred care attitudes? How do students experience the design thinking and AI-supported learning activities? Researchers will compare the intervention group with a wait-list control group to see whether the workshop leads to better outcomes. Participants will: complete a baseline questionnaire before the workshop; be randomly assigned to receive the workshop now or later; attend two tutorials in the intervention group, including design thinking activities and AI-simulated clinical scenarios; complete a follow-up questionnaire after the workshop; and, for some participants, join a short interview about their learning experience.

This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effect of simulation-based and video-based training on nurses' confidence, satisfaction, and clinical practice related to nasogastric tube care, compared with a control group receiving routine training or usual practice. Nasogastric tube care is an essential nursing procedure that requires adequate knowledge, practical skills, and confidence to ensure safe and effective patient care. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: simulation-based training, video-based training, or control. The findings of this study will provide evidence on effective educational methods to improve nurses' performance in nasogastric tube care and support better quality of care.
