NCT ID: NCT03834389 Completed - Clinical trials for Educational Problems

The Effect of Case-Based Learning Method on Perceived Competence and Critical Thinking Levels

Case-Based
Start date: December 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Second-year nursing students are randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The case-based teaching method was applied to the experimental group and the classical teaching method was applied to the control group. After the initiative, both groups observed differences in perceived competence and critical thinking levels. In addition, the focus groups were interviewed with the experimental group and the opinions and suggestions about the initiative were evaluated qualitatively and the total mix method was used.

NCT ID: NCT03785353 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

The Effects of Pain Neuroscience Education in a Spanish-Speaking Population

Start date: March 26, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE) has been shown to be effective to alter beliefs and decrease pain among individuals with musculoskeletal pain. Additionally, PNE has been shown to alter beliefs among middle school children. This study plans to assess the effects of PNE within a group of Spanish-speaking individuals.

NCT ID: NCT03773861 Completed - Clinical trials for Educational Problems

Group Size in Basic Life Support (BLS) Courses

Start date: December 10, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Basic Life Support (BLS) is important for outcome in cardiac arrest.Therefore, it is crucial to improve the quality of education in resuscitation training. Better training will eventually lead to more effective CPR skills in course participants. BLS courses in both international resuscitation associations (European Resuscitation Council and American Heart Association are typically taught in small groups of 6 participants. In reality group sizes of up to 10 participants are used, because these courses are highly demanded and cost intensive. There is no evidence for the effective group size to be clinical and cost effective. Therefore the investigators perform this prospective study to determine the maximum number of participants an instructor can oversee without missing more than 20% of errors made during an instructional BLS session.

NCT ID: NCT03738033 Completed - Clinical trials for Educational Problems

Mobile Education for Emergency Ultrasound

Start date: April 2015
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The investigators aim to investigate the feasibility of using mobile application platform for sonographic education. Junior physicians at the National Taiwan University Hospital will be enrolled in this study. To design and develop a secure mobile application platform (consisting of mobile device and a cloud-based server) for interactive teaching, remote social-based consultation and discussion. The information exchange through the platform carries images and simulated cases. This pioneer study can provide experience of mobile sonographic education and contribute to current medical education. Moreover, it can improve decision-making process and quality of care, and could lessen crowdedness at emergency departments. Furthermore, the integrated platform can be used in other educational programs in the future.

NCT ID: NCT03704129 Completed - Clinical trials for Educational Problems

Educational Programme in Diaphragm Ultrasonographic Assessment

Start date: December 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Diaphragm ultrasound non-invasively explores the diaphragm function and it can be useful in several clinical situations. Diaphragm ultrasound is able to evaluate the cranio-caudal displacement of the diaphragm and its thickening fraction at the end of inspiration, in relation to the end-expiratory value. While several studies have been conducted in the evaluation of educational programmes for echocardiography, to date data lack regarding this aspect in diaphragm ultrasonographic assessment. Based on the experience gained in some specialization schools in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, the investigators hypothesize that the participation in a two-hour course, including a theoretical part and a practical training, allows to acquire the appropriate theoretical and practical skills necessary to correctly perform the measurement of the diaphragm excursion and thickening fraction, compared to the theoretical lesson only, followed by a brief explanation by an expert tutor, on the practical use of the ultrasound. The investigators hypothesized that the association of the theoretical part and of the practical training is able to obtain: 1. Passing the theoretical test with at least 70% of the correct answers; 2. The correct identification of the areas where the probe is affixed; 3. The appropriate measure of Diaphragmatic thickening and displacement.

NCT ID: NCT03650777 Completed - Clinical trials for Medication Adherence

Impact of Telehealth Warfarin Education on Patient Retention

Start date: February 18, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of telehealth warfarin education in a charity outpatient clinic. The purpose is to increase patient knowledge with regard to their warfarin therapy and to measure knowledge retention

NCT ID: NCT03645811 Completed - Anxiety Clinical Trials

Integrative Medicine on Exam Anxiety

Start date: January 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction: Test anxiety, one of the forms of situational anxiety, is a crucial biopsychological factor negatively affecting the wellbeing and academic performance of students throughout their education. The study aims to determine the effects of music therapy and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) on situational anxiety and vital signs in nursing students before they take the OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Exam). The study was a randomized controlled experimental study and conducted with 90 volunteering students studying at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nursing at a university in Istanbul. A computer-based random number generator was used to randomly assign the students into three groups (Music, EFT, and control), each of which consisted of 30 students. Data collection was carried out using a Student Identification Form, the Situational Anxiety Scale, and the Vital Signs Form.

NCT ID: NCT03607877 Completed - Exercise Clinical Trials

A RCT of Walking With Positive Education in Retired Elders

RCT
Start date: September 1, 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Three arms of experimental design were used: Pedometer walking training (PWT), positive education and pedometer walking training (PEPWT), and pedometer walking (PW). Trained walking exercise was provided by a physical education expert three times per week, 45 minutes per session. Positive education was designed and led by a licensed psychologist. Six sessions of activities targeted participants' self-strength, competence and self-efficacy in walking exercise; positive relations with others; and positive emotions about life and healthy lifestyle. Of 150 participants, 60, 60 and 30 were randomly assigned to PWT, PEPWT, and PW, respectively. Demographic information, Chinese Happiness Inventory (CHI), regular walking exercise and six-minute walking distance were assessed before and after the intervention.

NCT ID: NCT03472001 Completed - Clinical trials for Educational Problems

Reflection and Feedback in Clinical Reasoning

Start date: April 2, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Medical students' abilities to diagnose skin lesions after dermatology electives often remain unsatisfactory despite a dermatology elective being one of the most effective ways to improve their clinical reasoning. Feedback and reflection are two basic teaching methods used in clinical settings. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of structured reflection and immediate feedback in improving of medical students' evaluation of skin lesions.
