| Abstract | ||||
| Background: Pediatric tracheostomy care requires effective training and specific technical skills and knowledge to ensure child's safety and prevent complications. Aim: Evaluate the effectiveness of simulation versus electronic training regarding pediatric tracheostomy care on nursing students' knowledge, skills and self-efficacy. Subjects: A convenience sampling of 200 pediatric nursing students. Setting: Pediatric Clinical Skills Lab, Faculty of Nursing, Tanta University. Tools: Tool (I) Students' Knowledge questionnaire about Tracheostomy. Tool (II) Observational Checklists of Tracheostomy Care. Tool (III) Learning Self-Efficacy Scale. Results: No statistically significant difference in students' knowledge was found between simulation and E-training groups at pretest, immediate posttest and one month later. Statistically significant differences were found in the mean scores regarding students' skills and self-efficacy between both groups immediately posttest and after one month. Conclusion: Simulation and E-training were effective strategies in improving students’ knowledge regarding pediatric tracheostomy care. Simulation is more powerful than E-training in improving nursing students’ skills and self-efficacy regarding pediatric tracheostomy care. Recommendation: Integration of E-learning with simulation training as a complementary modality, but not as a substitute. | ||||
