Enhancing pediatric and neonatal CPR competency through clinical simulation: An educational innovation approach

This study presents an educational innovation program aimed at enhancing pediatric and neonatal CPR competency among nursing degree students. The program utilizes clinical simulation, debriefing techniques, and an annual action research methodology to improve knowledge acquisition and student satisfaction. The specific aims include assessing the educational impact on CPR technique learning and identifying elements for improvement. Results indicate improvements in knowledge assessment items, but also highlight the need for ongoing quality enhancement, particularly in prior evaluations and access to materials. The study emphasizes the importance of continuous improvement and the utilization of debriefing techniques to enhance student satisfaction. Overall, the educational innovation has positively impacted student satisfaction, but further refinements are necessary to achieve optimal learning outcomes. This work contributes to the ongoing development of effective CPR training methodologies in nursing education.
