Determination of skill and knowledge requirements of an instrument nurse working in major vascular surgery for the development of a virtual reality training tool
An arterial aneurysm is a segment of artery which is permanently dilated 50% greater than its expected normal diameter and requires surgical intervention to prevent the aneusrym from rupturing which may be fatal (Goldstone, 2019). Surgical repair of an AAA includes using either a minimally invasive technique (endovascular aneurysm repair) or an open technique (the focus of this study). Whilst many patients are treated using minimally invasive techniques, some patients require traditional open AAA repair due to the an atomical constraints that preclude endovascular management of the aneurysm (Goldstone, 2019).

Virtual Reality and Screen-Based Simulation Learner Outcomes Using Kirkpatrick's Evaluation Levels: An Integrative Review
Simulation-based learning, including virtual reality (VR) and screen-based simulation, has emerged as widely adopted virtual methods that can provide an effective way to enhance learning. The purpose of this integrative review was to explore the current state of learning outcomes derived from virtual simulation modalities and determine if it is a viable option to deliver health care education and nursing professional development. Whittemore and Knafl's (2005) integrative review framework was followed for this review. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

The Use of Simulation Best Practices When Investigating Virtual Simulation in Health care: A Scoping Review
In the changing landscape of patient care, simulation has become ever more important (Nestel, Scerbo,& Kardong-Edgren, 2019). In the past twenty years, simulation has gone from a forgotten and esoteric method of education and training (Owen, 2016) to an essential aspect of health professional education (HPE) (Anton, Calhoun,& Stefanidis, 2022; Murphy, Cremonini, Kane,& Dunn, 2007; Nestel et al., 2019; Ziv, Root Wolpe, Small,& Glick, 2003). With the growth of simulation, simulation methods are continuously refined and expanded. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

Interprofessional Gratitude: Partnering With Registered Nurses as Embedded Participants in a Medical Education Patient Death Simulation Experience
Embedded participants (EPs), also known as “embedded simulation persons,” are individuals scripted or trained to a specific role in a simulation encounter who are not participating as learners. Embedded participants provide key guidance to learners, dependent on scenario objectives (Society for Simulation in Healthcare [SSH], 2020). By adding human elements into simulated scenarios, such as with EPs (SSH, 2020), educators can augment learner engagement, enhance fidelity, create learner challenges, and ultimately impact educational outcomes (Gliva-McConvey et al., 2020b; Hamstra, Brydges, Hatala, Zendejas,& Cook, ...

Nursing Students ’ Experience of Using HoloPatient During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Pandemic: A Qualitative Descriptive Study
Mixed reality (MR) is currently used in various educational and clinical settings (Kim, Choi,& Kim, 2021), and its importance is increasing given changes in the educational environment due to the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Unlike virtual reality (VR), which creates a simulated environment that is not real, MR synthesizes virtual objectives or information with the real world, allowing users to experience a blended reality through devices such as HoloLens (Kaplan et al., 2021).

Changes in Active Class Attitudes Towards Learning and in Discussion Skills of Nursing University Students Engaged in Simulation-Based Education
Simulation-based education emphasizes the importance of learners actively using what they have learned. With simulation-based education, it has been reported that the exam performance improved by about 6% and the failure rate was 0.66 times that of traditional lectures only (Freeman et al., 2014), and that it is also useful in nursing training because simulation-based education may enhance knowledge, skills, and clinical focused reasoning of learners (Aqel& Ahmad, 2014; Khalaila, 2014; Padilha, Machado, Ribeiro, Ramos,& Costa, 2019).

The Effect of Structured Reflection on Nurse Practitioner Students ’ Diagnostic Reasoning Within Simulation: Qualitative Outcomes of a Mixed Methods Experiment
Over the past decade, the scope and prevalence of diagnostic errors have come to light. The reported error rate is 5%-30%, with higher prevalence in practice areas where the symptoms are still evolving at the time of the patient's initial presentation (Newman-Toker et al., 2020; Singh, Meyer,& Thomas, 2014). Improving Diagnosis in Health Care (National Academy of Medicine [NAM], 2015) defines diagnostic error as “the failure to (a) establish an accurate and timely explanation of the patient's health problem(s) or (b) communicate that explanation to the patient” (p.

Using ChatGPT in Simulation Design: What Can (or Should) It Do for You?
In the past several months, there have been many conversations regarding ChatGPT. In academia, these conversations frequently include concerns of students using ChatGPT to write academic assignments for them. For those that are not familiar with ChatGPT (chat generative- pretrained transformer), it is a chatbot that uses artificial intelligence to scour the internet and provide a response to your question. What is unique about ChatGPT, however, is the sheer power of this AI system to retrieve data and to generate text that sounds like a human wrote it. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

Experiences of Nursing Students in Observer Roles During Simulation-Based Learning and the Impact on Patient Safety: A Scoping Review
As the average lifespan continues to lengthen with technological advancements in health care, more individuals will require nursing care for complex and chronic illnesses. Thus, higher expectations for nurses exist to care for the vulnerable population, emphasizing patient safety (Lee et al., 2020). Nurses increasingly demand advanced technical skills and robust clinical judgment to practice competently (Hanshaw& Dickerson, 2020). Health care institutions have criticized new graduate nurses for not meeting professional practice requirements when working in complex, specialized care environments (Abelsson& Bisholt, 2...

Clinical to Simulation Ratio: The Impact on Quebec Nursing Students ’ Success, Cognitive Load, and Mental Well-Being
Providing high quality clinical experiences for nursing students is challenging as Quebec CEGEPs (Coll ège d'enseignement général et professionnel) require students to obtain 1,035 hours of hospital training in preparation for licensing and entry into the workforce. Meeting this requirement is challenging due to closure of hospital units, shortened hospital stays, higher patient acuity, competitio n for limited clinical sites, and staff shortages (Hayden, Smiley, Alexander, Kardong-Edgren,& Jeffries, 2014a; Hayden Smiley,& Gross, 2014b).

Using a Telehealth Simulation to Prepare Nursing Students for Intraprofessional Collaboration
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and other market forces, the virtual care component of telehealth programs is rapidly expanding. Evidence indicates virtual care can facilitate patient access to health care, satisfaction, and positive health outcomes (Li, Borycki,& Kushniruk, 2021). To ensure high-quality virtual care, collaboration between health care team members is essential. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

A Scaffolded Simulation Curriculum: Translating Simulation with Standardized Patient Encounters into Clinical Practice for Nurse Practitioner Students
The new emphasis on competency-based education (CBE) is an opportunity for nurse educators to evolve methods of education delivery and assessment. CBE focuses on the outcomes of an educational experience aiming to foster learning and behavior change (AACN, 2021). To achieve competence, a learner must possess an “array of abilities (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) across multiple domains or aspects of performance in a certain context” (AACN, 2021, pg. 56). One area that remains a challenge is determining competency achievement in advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) clinical education. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)
