간호대학생을 위한 증강현실 기반 Level D 개인보호구 착 ‧ 탈의 실습 교육 프로그램 개발 및 효과: 혼합연구

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigated the effect of practice of donning and doffing level D personal protective equipment(PPE) based on augmented reality (AR) on the knowledge and performance confidence, practical immersion,practical satisfaction, and practical experience of nursing students. Methods: This mixed-method study included28 participants in the experimental group and 28 in the control group in C city. The intervention in the experimentalgroup was practice of donning and doffing level D PPE based on AR and the control group received video-basedtraining. Quantitative data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS program, and qualitative data were subjected tocontent analysis. Results: There were significant differences in performance confidence (t=3.17, p=.002) andpractice satisfaction (z=-2.13, p=.033), but not in knowledge (z=-0.90, p=.366) and practice immersion (t=1.71,p=.093) regarding PPE. In the experience of nursing students who participated in AR-based practice, thefacilitating factors were “good concentration in practice,” “can use the technology accurately,” “the skills remainin memory for a long time,” and “the practice was interesting and fun.” The obstacles to AR-based practice were“using smart glasses to watch AR content was uncomfortable” and “it was difficult to adapt to AR-based content.”Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, we suggest applying AR-based practice in practical education toincrease nursing students' performance confidence and practice satisfaction.
