| Abstract | ||||
| Background: Both survival rates and neurologic outcomes have been demonstrated to be improved by cardiopulmonary resuscitation that is started within minutes of the arrest beginning. Simulation-based education facilitates the integration of clinical practice and classroom instruction. It helps nurses become more competent before working with newborns in a real-world setting, which enhances care quality and guarantees the safety of the babies. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of simulation-based training on nurses' performance and attitude regarding pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Method: A quasi-experimental research design was used. Setting: The study was conducted in clinical pediatric laboratory skills, Faculty of Nursing affiliated to Sohag University Hospitals. Subjects: all nurses (50) who are working in the neonatal intensive care unit. Tools for data collection: (1) A structured interviewing questionnaire that was constructed by the researcher including two parts, tool (2) observational checklist, and (3) tool (3) attitude of pediatric nursing student’s regarding cardiopulmonary resuscitation was used to collect data. Results: There was a highly statistically significant difference between the studied nurses' knowledge, practice, and attitude. The study result revealed that more than three quarters of studied nurses had a poor level of knowledge, and more than half of them had an unsatisfactory level of practice, and most of them had negative attitude about pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation before implementation of the simulation-based training. The vast majority of the studied nurses had a good level of knowledge and most of them had a satisfactory level of practice, and most of them had positive attitude after implementing simulation-based training. There was a highly statistically significant difference and improvement in nurses' performance and attitude after simulation-based training than pre-training. Conclusion: The present study concluded that simulation-based training had a positive effect on improving nurses' performance and attitude regarding pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Recommendations: The study recommended that simulation-based training should be integrated as an effective method in nurses' training about pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation. | ||||
