Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? Almost all included studies link simulation scenario training with improvement in safety-related skills and knowledge across communication, teamwork, medication safety, and incident reporting. → González-Sanz A 2026
Evidence¶
González-Sanz A 2026¶
González-Sanz A, López-García JC, Sutil-Rodríguez E, Juárez-Vela R, Santos-Sánchez JÁ, Navas-Echazarreta N, Martínez-Sabater A, Sancho-Sanchez C. (2026). Simulation-Based Training for Nursing Students to Improve Patient Safety: Systematic Review. JMIR Nursing. https://doi.org/10.2196/87898
q3 · i? · review · r2
Systematic review (PRISMA 2020) of 20 studies from 12 countries, synthesized narratively after JBI appraisal (14 high, 6 moderate quality). The review reports that "almost all studies link training through simulation scenarios with an improvement in safety-related skills and knowledge." No pooled effect size was computed.
"In general, almost all studies link training through simulation scenarios with an improvement in safety-related skills and knowledge"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Simulation complemented by other techniques improves patient safety competency more than simulation alone, but added classroom teaching did not improve teamwork attitudes — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- Structured communication tools such as SBAR incorporated into simulation are associated with improved team coordination and information transfer — related
- Simulation Based Education Improves Outcomes — a broader claim this one bears on
- Manikin-based simulation produced equal or superior competency outcomes versus traditional clinical practice, except in the Patient Safety domain — related
- Simulation Based Education With Deliberate Practice Improves Clinical Outcomes — a broader claim this one bears on
