An interventional study of Virtual simulation training on emergency response to bioterrorist attacks for nursing staff in Bioterrorism；Nurses；Computer Simulation；Biosafety Response Capability, sponsored by Air Force Military Medical University, China. Not yet recruiting. Open to participants aged 20 Years to 50 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-09-21.

This study aims to validate the effectiveness of a virtual simulation training system for emergency response to bioterrorism incidents in enhancing the biosafety response capabilities of clinical nursing staff. An asynchronous controlled trial was conducted, utilizing two consecutive training sessions for clinical nursing staff at a university; participants in the first session were assigned to the control group, while those in the second session were assigned to the intervention group. The control group received traditional in-person training (combining theoretical instruction with practical exercises), while the intervention group underwent training that combined theoretical instruction with the virtual simulation training platform developed for this study. The intervention duration was 4 weeks for both groups, and assessments were conducted before and after the intervention using the Clinical Nurse Biosafety Response Scale.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

The control group received \*\*conventional face-to-face training on emergency response to bioterrorist attacks\*\*, including theoretical lectures and practical drills.
Other: Virtual simulation training on emergency response to bioterrorist attacks for nursing staff
The intervention group received theoretical lectures combined with \*\*virtual simulation training for emergency response to bioterrorist attacks\*\* developed in this study.
Other: Virtual simulation training on emergency response to bioterrorist attacks for nursing staff
This study focused on a training program for school nursing staff, with participants from the first cohort serving as the control group and those from the second cohort as the intervention group. A non-concurrent controlled experiment was conducted: the control group received traditional in-person training consisting of theoretical instruction and practical exercises, while the intervention group received training that combined theoretical instruction with a virtual simulation training platform developed for this study.
Biosafety incident response competence
The training effect among nurses was evaluated using the self-developed biosecurity incident response competence scale of our research group, which covers four dimensions: biosecurity incident monitoring and early-warning competence, nursing management competence for biosecurity incidents, biosecurity knowledge readiness, and biosecurity infection-protection competence.
Time frame: From enrollment to the completion of the four-week training.
