High-Fidelity Simulation and Longitudinal Outcomes in Novice Nurses (HFS-NOVA)
Sponsor: Tri-Service General Hospital
Summary
This study examined whether high-fidelity simulation (HFS) training - a realistic, hands-on learning method using advanced patient mannequins - can improve both technical skills and psychological well-being in newly graduated nurses. Seventy novice nurses at a tertiary medical centre in Taiwan participated in a structured HFS session focused on airway crisis management. Six outcomes were measured at three time points: before training (T1), immediately after training (T2), and three months later (T3). These outcomes included: airway management knowledge, clinical performance, learning attitude, self-efficacy (confidence in clinical abilities), nursing learning resilience (ability to cope with professional challenges), and psychological well-being.

Interventions
High-Fidelity Simulation Training for Airway Management
A standardised 40-minute HFS session using SimMan 3G (Laerdal Medical) comprising three phases: (1) Pre-briefing (10 min): environmental orientation, fiction contract, and psychological safety emphasis. (2) Scenario phase (20 min): each participant acted as primary decision-maker for a patient with acute respiratory failure, performing assessment, oxygen titration, airway suctioning, and care escalation. (3) Structured debriefing (10 min): facilitator-led debrief using the Debriefing for Meaningful Learning (DML) framework.
