| Summary: | Introduction: Simulation is widely practiced as learning strategies in many disciplines including nursing. It is considered an updated technological approach towards providing safe and sound patients care. Thus, this study was
conducted to assess the level of knowledge among nursing students using a simulated mannequin for cardiovascular
assessment. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study design focusing Year 4 nursing students at Kulliyyah of Nursing, International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). A simulation mannequin was used for students performing a
cardiovascular assessment. Level of knowledge was tested using an adapted questionnaire. The study was approved
by the Kulliyyah of Nursing Postgraduate Research Committee (Ref: IIUM/313/DDAA/20/4/10) and IIUM Research
Ethics Committee (Ref: IREC 2018-024). Results: A total of 57 nursing students involved in this study revealing good
cardiovascular assessment knowledge. Majority of them reported that simulation exercise is one of the good learning
strategies to enhance their capabilities and increase their confidence level. Conclusions: The results from this study
could indicate that using technological simulation approach could provide a similar effect in performing cardiovascular assessment among nursing student IIUM. Future larger scale is needed including for any other disciplines in
nursing to facilitate students’ preparation towards the real clinical setting. |
