Interventions

  • Othergamified scenario-based teaching

    A randomized controlled trial design was used, employing convenient sampling to recruit 68 nurses from a general ward of a medical center in northern Taiwan. Research tools included demographic and related data, an emergency knowledge scale, a self-confidence scale, and satisfaction assessment

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. First Aid Skills Questionnaire

    This study used a randomized controlled trial design. Blocked randomization was employed, dividing participants into an experimental group (gamified learning) and a control group (online video instruction). The experimental group learned first aid techniques using gamified learning, which involved taking photos of clinical first aid scenarios and placing them into the application. The application then transformed the photos into story scenarios, which the experimental group members would then immerse themselves in. The control group received instruction using existing online videos from the hospital.Two groups were enrolled using the hospital's emergency medical knowledge questionnaire at three stages: before intervention, after intervention, and one month after intervention. The questionnaire consisted of 10 multiple-choice questions. A correct answer was worth 10 points, while an incorrect answer or an answer that did not know was worth 0 points. The total score ranged from 0 to 100

    Time frame: one month

Secondary outcomes

  1. Confidence Scale

    The C-scale (Grundy, 1993) was used for measurement. This scale has been translated into Chinese by scholars. The scale has a Cronbach's α value of 0.91 and a CVI value of 1.0, indicating good quantity-response reliability and validity. This scale consists of five items, with each item scored from one to five points, for a total score of 5 to 25 points. Higher scores indicate greater confidence in the research subjects' emergency treatment and techniques.

    Time frame: one month

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jan 26, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
