Virtual Reality Simulation for Advanced Infection Control Education in Neonatal Intensive Care Units: Focusing on the Prevention of Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections and Ventilator-Associated Infections
This study examined the effects of a virtual reality simulation for advanced infection control education in neonatal intensive care units (VR_AICENICU) on nurses’ infection control knowledge and performance confidence. We examined nurses’ presence, empathy, and program satisfaction using a non-equivalent control group pre-post design. Nurses were divided into an experimental group (<i<n</i< = 20) experiencing VR simulation and routine NICU practice and a control group (<i<n</i< = 20) with routine NICU practice. The VR_AICENICU program comprised three scenarios: high-risk medication with lipid solution, dressing and management for peripheral inserted central line, and aspiration prevention and skincare management during ventilator use for premature infants. Data were collected between February and July 2022. The experimental group showed significantly greater improvements in infection control knowledge and performance confidence compared to the pre-test. The average scores of presence, empathy, and program satisfaction of the experimental group were 4.39 ± 0.36, 4.33 ± 0.75, and 4.90 ± 0.31, respectively. The VR_AICENICU program has implications for the education needs of nurses working in NICUs and enhances their knowledge and performance of infection control. Future studies should apply the VR_AICENICU program to different severity grades of NICU patients and develop additional VR programs..
