Effects of Two-Tier Test-Based Virtual Reality Instruction on ACLS Outcomes Among Clinical Nurses
Sponsor: Taoyuan General Hospital
Summary
This study aims to evaluate the effects of two-tier test-based virtual reality (VR) instruction on Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) learning outcomes among clinical nurses. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a two-tier test-based VR instruction group or a traditional interactive VR instruction group. Both groups will use tablet-based, non-immersive VR to learn and practice ACLS-related clinical scenarios. The study will assess ACLS knowledge, ACLS skills, resuscitation self-efficacy, critical reflection ability, and cognitive load. Assessments will be conducted before and after the intervention, with follow-up assessments conducted one month later to evaluate the retention of learning outcomes.

Two-Tier Test-Based Virtual Reality Instruction
Participants will receive a single session of tablet-based, non-immersive virtual reality (VR) instruction lasting approximately 20-25 minutes. The VR program presents a simulated Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) scenario involving the emergency management of a hospitalized patient. Interactive two-tier test questions are embedded within the VR scenario. The first tier consists of single-choice questions assessing ACLS knowledge and clinical decision-making, and the second tier consists of single-choice questions assessing the reasoning underlying the first-tier responses. After participants respond, the system provides immediate feedback to support learning and reflection. The experimental and comparator interventions use the same tablet equipment, VR scenario, first-tier questions, core ACLS learning content, and intervention duration. The distinguishing feature of this intervention is the addition of second-tier reasoning questions.
Traditional Interactive Virtual Reality Instruction
Participants will receive a single session of tablet-based, non-immersive virtual reality (VR) instruction lasting approximately 20-25 minutes. The VR program presents a simulated Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) scenario involving the emergency management of a hospitalized patient. Single-tier, single-choice questions assessing ACLS knowledge and clinical decision-making are embedded within the VR scenario. After participants respond to each question, the system provides immediate feedback. The comparator and experimental interventions use the same tablet equipment, VR scenario, first-tier questions, core ACLS learning content, and intervention duration. The distinguishing feature of this intervention is that it does not include the second-tier reasoning questions used in the experimental intervention.
