Population

120 trainee nurses

Intervention

Cardiac Rhythm Identification for Simple People (CRISP) method with flipped classroom approach

Comparator

Lecture-based learning method

Outcome

ECG test scores after trainingsurrogate

The CRISP method combined with a flipped classroom approach is an effective educational strategy that improves ECG interpretation skills and learning engagement among trainee nurses.

Main Result

Absolute Event Rate: 80.83% vs 73.5%

p-value: p=<0.001

Did not investigate the effect of the CRISP method or flipped classroom approach in isolation

Abstract

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to explored the effects of the Cardiac Rhythm Identification for Simple People (CRISP) method with flipped classroom approach for arrhythmia interpretation in electrocardiogram (ECG) by trainee nurses. METHODS: A total of 120 trainee nurses were enrolled and randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group using lecture-based learning method. We observed the effects of the two methods in ECG interpretation training and investigated the students' attitudes toward the teaching practices. RESULTS: After training, the ECG test scores in the experimental group were significantly higher than that of the control group. Six months later, the ECG test scores of the experimental group was still higher. Self-learning enthusiasm, understanding of teaching content, satisfaction of teaching mode, satisfaction of teaching effectiveness, and interest in learning ECG were significantly higher in the experimental group. CONCLUSION: CRISP method with flipped classroom approach is a new and effective mode worth trying in ECG teaching for trainee nurses.
