 Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of simulation training (ST) in improving nurses' knowledge and practice, which is essential in the nursing field, particularly among nurses in Jordanian hospitals. ST has the potential to significantly enhance patient care outcomes. A Randomized Control Trial was conducted in five hospitals in Jordan, using three repeated measurement tests: a pre-test, an immediate post-test after the intervention, and a post-test three months later. The nonparametric Mann-Whitney statistical test showed that the control and experimental groups were similar, with no significant differences in the participants' demographic characteristics. The Independent T-test confirmed the similarity of the pre-test results in the control group's knowledge and practice and the intervention group's mean scores. The simulation intervention proved to be highly effective in enhancing Basic Life Support (BLS) knowledge and practice among nurses. It nearly doubled the knowledge pre-test percentage from 40% to 75.35% in the immediate post-test, improving the scores from poor in the pre-test to excellent in the post-test. This significant improvement highlights the importance of simulation training in enhancing nurses' knowledge and practice. Similarly, ST significantly increased the average practice score percentage from 47.5% to 70% after the intervention, demonstrating its substantial impact. In conclusion, BLS simulation is a highly efficient educational method that helps participants acquire knowledge and skills. Simulation training prepares learners to activate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) quickly and correctly in case of cardiopulmonary arrest. Therefore, simulation in training should be expanded in the nursing curriculum.
