BackgroundHigh-fidelity simulation (HFS) as a teaching-learning method has increased, especially in medical programs.ObjectiveThis study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of using HFS on the satisfaction, self-confidence, self-efficacy, and knowledge of undergraduate students in oncology care.MethodsA pre-test post-test quasi-experimental design was utilized. Random sampling technique was used to recruit the participants. The scenarios including septic shock and infusion reaction were implemented. The training program including lectures and the simulation was run in a high fidelity simulation lab.ResultsThere was a significant difference (t=-5.95, p= 0.001) between the experimental group (M= 13.95, S⁢D= 3.35) and the control group (M= 6.25, S⁢D= 2.65) regarding knowledge, confidence (t=-22.75, p= 0.001) between the experimental group (M= 61.25, S⁢D= 12.10) and the control group (M= 38.50, S⁢D= 6.20), satisfaction level t=-18.25, p= 0.001; experimental group - M= 42.25, S⁢D= 4.25; and control group - M= 28.50, S⁢D= 3.15), and there was a significant difference between the experimental group (M= 35.50, S⁢D= 3.25) and control group (M= 24.25, S⁢D= 2.85) regarding self-efficacy (t=-13.25, p= 0.001).ConclusionsHigh-fidelity simulation in nursing increased student knowledge, self-confidence, satisfaction, and self-efficacy in managing septic shock and infusion reaction as common oncology emergencies.
