{Abstract}: UNASSIGNED: Simulation-based learning (SBL) emerged as an imperative pedagogical approach adaptable to situations involving widely varying clinical content without exposing patients to the risks inherent in trainee learning. The purpose of the present review was to assess the outcome of SBL on the domains of learning i.e cognitive, affective, and psychomotor.
UNASSIGNED: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, Clinical Trial database, and other sources to evaluate the effectiveness of SBL versus traditional teaching methods among nursing students till March 2021. Two authors individually extracted the data and identified the risk of bias and analyzed the data.
UNASSIGNED: The selected studies with a total of 364 nursing students were included for analysis. Overall, it was found that learning via simulation has beneficial effects. In combined subgroup analysis, use of simulation showed significant effects on students' understanding (SMD = 1.31, 95% CI [0.80, 1.82], P < 0.00001), Self-confidence (SMD = 1.93, 95% CI [1.01,2.84], P < 0.0001), (SMD = 1.83, 95% CI [0.91,2.74], P < 0.0001), Learning satisfaction [E:17.94, C-17.60] and Skill (SMD = 1.62, 95% CI [0.62,2.62], P = 0.002) and psychological care (SMD = 1.60, 95%CI [0.61,2.58], P = 0.001). Heterogeneity ranging from I2 = 54%-86% was found during the analysis.
UNASSIGNED: The findings of the present study considered simulation as an effective teaching method to enhance cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills.
