Undergraduate Nursing Education and End-of-Life Simulation: A Scoping Review
Caring for a dying patient is an important skill for nurses, as it occurs across all age spectrum and specializations. Of all patients dying in Australian hospitals, 34.4% were receiving palliative care (Stubbs, Assareh, Achat,& Jalaludin, 2019). Nurses spend more time with patients at end-of-life compared to other health professionals; they are often the ones who provide essential care such as hygiene, pressure area care, pain relief and communicating with families (Waller et al., 2020). Therefore, it is paramount nurses are armed with the knowledge and skills to support a dignified death. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

Virtual Immersion into a Poorly-Managed Medical Crisis Worsens Subsequent Performance: A Randomized, Controlled Trial
Effective nontechnical skills (NTS) during the management of critical events reduce morbidity(Gaba, 2010; Lei& Palm, 2021). Perioperative teams typically practice NTS, such as effective communication, task management, and situational awareness, through in-person simulations. Rating systems that define the optimal cognitive and interprofessional skills required by health care professionals have been created to as sess NTS (Bracq, Michinov,& Jannin, 2019; Flin& Patey, 2011). These assessment tools include the Anesthetists’ Non-Technical Skills (ANTS) scale and the behaviorally anchored rating scale (BARS) (Flin& Pat...

A Scoping Review of the Priority of Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity in Health Care Simulation
As a relational profession committed to serving society, nursing operates within a social contract, an arrangement of accountability outlined by a professional code of ethics, regulatory licensure, institutional policies, and global expectations (Fowler, 2015a). This nexus of accountability holds professional nurses responsible for creating and sustaining a nursing workforce that embodies and emanates diversity, inclusion, equitable health care, and health promotion (American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN), 2021; Fowler, 2015b).

Using Audio-Visual Simulation to Elicit Nursing Students ’ Noticing and Interpreting Skills to Assess Pain in Culturally Diverse Patients
Assessment and management of pain is a critical role for health care professionals. Although pain perception has been recognized as a multi-dimensional phenomenon, a one-size-fits-all mantra of ‘pain is whatever the patient says it is’ has prevailed. A number of biological, sociocultural, and communication differences contribute to pain perception and self-report, requiring nurses’ clinical reasoning to assess pain appropriately (Schiavenato& Craig, 2010). Globally, a range of cultural norms impact on pain expression and reporting (Orhan et al., 2018), necessitating greater consideration of factors that influence...

Comparing the Stress, Anxiety, and Learning Effects of Leaders and Team Members in High Fidelity Nursing Simulation
Simulation provides students with an opportunity for experiential learning. It enables nursing students to safely engage in realistic scenarios that replicate real-world practice, to use higher-order critical thinking, and to enhance behavioral skills. Simulation has been reported to effectively replace a portion of traditional clinical experience (Hayden, Smiley, Alexander, Kardong-Edgren,& Jeffries, 2014). Many nursing education programs use high fidelity simulation to prepare students for transition to the clinical phase. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

Cultural Simulations, Authenticity, Focus, and Outcomes: A Systematic Review of the Healthcare Literature
Disparities, in health outcomes as a consequence of race, ethnicity, gender, disability, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status are widely documented (Roberts et al., 2020). Cultural competence (CC) training has been identified as a key strategy in the drive to provide culturally responsive healthcare and reduce healthcare disparities (Botelho& Lima, 2020). In nursing education, CC simulation-based learning (SBL) has emerged as a core pedagogy; however, the essential components of effective culturally diverse SBL remains largely unclear (Oikarainen et al., 2019).

Augmented Reality (AR) as a Prebrief for Acute Care Simulation
The literature substantiates the use of simulation-based teaching strategies in nursing education (Bye, 2014; Nye, Campbell, Hebert, Short,& Thomas, 2019; Tyerman, Luctkar-Flude, Graham, Coffey,& Olsen-Lynch, 2019). The Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best PracticeTM (HSSOBPTM) Simulation Design calls for attention to the planning and development throughout each phase of simulation-based activities (INACSL Standards Committee, Watts, et al., 2021). A criterion of simulation design (number eight), that is prebriefing, focuses on the essential aspects of preparation and structuring of pre-simulation activities to...

Implications of the Dunning-Kruger Effect: Finding Balance between Subjective and Objective Assessment in Debriefing Professional Development
Self-assessment measures are frequently used in training programs and in research to evaluate the effectiveness of training. Although self-assessment is widely used in higher education, there is little evidence describing how well debriefers self-assess their specific debriefing skills, or how their self-assessed scores compare to objective assessment by an expert. This paper reports the findings from a study investigating the comparison of newly trained debriefers ’ subjective assessment with objective assessment by experts when using the same instrument, the Debriefing for Meaningful Learning Evaluation Scale (DMLES). ...

An Update on the Most Influential Nursing Simulation Studies: A Bibliometric Analysis
Nurse educators require educational and research expertise. The scholarship of faculty teaching staff who teach in nursing education has become increasingly important, as role statements or job descriptions require both educational expertise and the development of a track record in nursing research. Bibliometrics is a method of evaluating the impact of scholarly research based on the number of citations a published article has accrued (Ellegaard& Wallin, 2015). The process requires a quantitative analysis of citation counts to determine the most cited articles in a particular field. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

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 plac...
