Summary: |
Background: Worldwide, patient safety has been a widely discussed topic and has currently become one of the greatest challenges
for health institutions. This concern is heightened when referring to children.
Objective: The goal of this study was to develop a virtual learning environment for medication administration, as a tool to
facilitate the training process of undergraduate nursing students.
Methods: Descriptive research and methodological development with a quantitative and qualitative approach were used with
stages of design-based research as methodological strategies. For the development of the virtual environment, 5 themes were
selected: rights of medication administration, medication administration steps, medication administration routes, medication
calculation, and nonpharmacological actions for pain relief. After development, 2 groups—expert judges in the field of pediatrics
and neonatology for environment validation and undergraduate nursing students for the assessment—were used to assess the
virtual learning environment. For the validation of the virtual learning environment by expert judges, the content validity index
was used, and for the evaluation of the students, the percentage of agreement was calculated.
Results: The study included 13 experts who positively validated the virtual environment with a content validity index of 0.97,
and 26 students who considered the content suitable for nursing students, although some adjustments are necessary.
Conclusions: The results show the benefit of the virtual learning environment to the training of nursing students and professional
nurses who work in health care. It is an effective educational tool for teaching medication administration in pediatrics and
neonatology and converges with the conjectures of active methodologies. |
