Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of HMD-based virtual reality core nursing skills training on nursing students' knowledge, performance, self-confidence, self-efficacy, and problem-s olving ability. The study participants were 45 fourth-year nursing students from a university in A city. The participants were assigned to either the experimental group (n = 21) who received VR core nursing skills related to blood transfusion training or the control group (n = 24) who received traditional training using mannequins. After completing core nursing skill training, the experimental group and the control group performed simulations including blood transfusion. Data was collected from October 3 to October 28, 2022. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and t-tests. The results showed that after the intervention, the experimental group had significantly higher knowledge scores than the control group (t=-2.13, p=.039). The control group had significantly higher self-confidence in performance than the experimental group (t=2.63, p=.012). There were no significant differences in performance, self-efficacy, or problem-solving ability between the two groups. Therefore, VR-based core nursing skills training can be usefully utilized for nursing students to learn the knowledge and procedures before performing them in real life, and traditional core nursing skills training using mannequins can lead to an increase in nursing students' confidence in performing the skills.

본 연구의 목적은 HMD 기반의 가상현실을 활용한 핵심간호술 훈련이 간호 학생의 지식, 수행도, 수행자신감, 자기효능감, 문제해결능력에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 시행되었다. 연구 대상은 A지역 소재 1개 대학에 재학 중인 4학년 간호학생 45명이며, 가상현실 활용 핵심간호술 훈련을 적용한 실험군 21명, 마네킨 모형 사용의 고전적 방법을 활용한 대조군 24명이다. 실험군과 대조군은 핵심간호술 훈련을 마친 후, 술기가 포함된 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 자료 수집은 2022년 10월 3일부터 10월 28일까지 시행되었으며, 수집된 자료는 서술적 통계, t-검정(t-test)로 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 중재 이후 간호학생의 지식은 실험군이 유의하게 더 높았고(t=-2.13, p=.039), 수행자신감은 대조군이 유의하게 더 높았다(t=2.63, p=.012). 수행도, 자기효능감, 문제해결능력은 유의미한 차이가 없었다. 따라서 가상현실을 활용한 핵심간호술 훈련은 간호학생들이 실제 수행을 하기 전 지식과 수행 절차를 익히는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있으며, 마네킨 모형을 사용하는 고전적 핵심간호술 훈련은 간호 학생들의 술기 자신감 향상을 이끌어 낼 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
