The Impact of Pecha Kucha Pre-Lab Teaching on Students' Foley Catheterization Skills: A Randomized Controlled Study
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Urinary Catheterization, Nursing Education
In brief
Urinary catheterization is a common nursing procedure used to drain urine from the bladder. When performed with the correct indications and sterile technique, it can help protect a patient's health. However, errors during catheter insertion may lead to serious complications, especially catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs). These infections are among the most common hospital-acquired infections and can increase hospital stay, health care costs, and complications for patients. Therefore, it is important for nursing students to learn this procedure safely and correctly. Traditional nursing education usually includes a lecture followed by a demonstration by an instructor. Students then practice the procedure themselves. However, new teaching approaches may help students learn complex clinical skills more effectively. Pecha Kucha is a short and structured presentation format. It includes 20 slides that automatically change every 20 seconds, and the presentation lasts 6 minutes and 40 seconds. This format encourages concise explanations and helps keep the audience focused. This study aims to compare a Pecha Kucha-based educational module with traditional teaching in urinary catheterization training for nursing students. Researchers will examine whether the Pecha Kucha method improves students' knowledge, skill performance, procedure time, and satisfaction with the training. The findings may help educators develop more effective and engaging teaching strategies for clinical skills education in nursing.
