Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Neonatal Nursing Practicum and Extended Reality Simulation Training Needs: A Descriptive and Cross-Sectional Study
2022
Sun-Yi Yang
This study investigated the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) clinical practicum status during the COVID-19 pandemic and the need for extended reality (XR)-based training for neonatal care. A structured questionnaire was distributed to 132 prelicensing nursing students. Data were analyzed using importance-performance analysis and Borich needs analysis. Students wanted to use XR to learn about treating high-risk preterm infants. COVID-19 limited clinical training in NICUs, and most students preferred training in XR programs to improve their nursing competency for neonates. There is a large demand for nursing skills concerning high-risk newborns and hands-off training.
