Effect of Microteaching on Ventrogluteal Injection Training

Sponsor: Ataturk University

Summary

Nursing education plays a crucial role in ensuring nurses possess the necessary knowledge and skills to provide high-quality care. Inadequacies in knowledge and practical skills can compromise patient safety and negatively impact care quality. Therefore, integrating both theoretical and practical education that covers cognitive, psychomotor, and affective learning domains is essential for nursing students. The micro-teaching method has emerged as an innovative educational approach, especially relevant for today's technology-savvy Generation Z students. It involves delivering small, focused learning units enriched with interactive multimedia content, which enhances knowledge retention, skill acquisition, and reduces student anxiety. This method also allows students to repeatedly access short videos and multimedia materials, enabling flexible and effective learning. Intramuscular (IM) injection is a fundamental skill nursing students must master. Specifically, the ventrogluteal site is considered safer and more effective compared to the dorsogluteal site, as it is associated with fewer complications such as pain, bleeding, and nerve injury. This study aims to examine the impact of ventrogluteal injection training using the micro-teaching method on nursing students' knowledge, skills, and anxiety levels. It is anticipated that this innovative educational approach will enhance learning outcomes, increase patient safety, and pave the way for future research in nursing education. The study is unique as it explores an area that has not been previously investigated. Its findings are expected to contribute significantly to the literature, influencing the development of effective teaching methods not only in nursing education but also across other educational fields. Additionally, the study holds importance as it contributes to a doctoral thesis, highlighting its academic value.
