Virtual Simulation to Enhance Clinical Reasoning in Nursing: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic (COVID-19) has led to increased opportunities for the development of virtual technologies in nursing education. With the unpredictable nature of the pandemic, continued public health mitigations such as safe distancing measures and avoidance of large group classes have necessitated the transition to more integrated, blended learning approaches in nursing education (Haslam,  2021). Some educators have swiftly incorporated virtual simulation into nursing curricula to complement face-to-face teaching, while others turned to virtual simulation to supplement access to limited clinical placements, particularly in specialist areas such as mental health, pediatrics, and mate rnal health (Verkuyl et al., 2021).
