Effectiveness of Immersive Virtual Reality in Nursing Students' Learning

Effectiveness of Immersive Virtual Reality to Improve Learning Outcomes in Nursing Degree Students: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Teaching using VR for basic cardiopulmonary resuscitation and patient examination (experimental group) will not result in differences in knowledge and skill acquisition compared to traditional classroom-based simulation teaching (control group), but it will lead to greater satisfaction and self-confidence. Open, single-center randomized clinical trial involving fourth-year nursing degree students at a public university. Participants will be assigned based on their usual teaching groups (ratio of 6-8 students per instructor) and, according to randomization, will receive a 1:1 assignment to either the control group (classroom-based simulation teaching) or the experimental group (classroom-based simulation teaching combined with VR headset teaching). The CONSORT checklist will be followed to report the study.

Inclusion Criteria:

- having completed the scheduled in-person simulation in previous years of the degree .

Exclusion Criteria:

-the student does not sign the informed consent to participate in the study.
