Abstract:
Background, Nursing education is critical for nursing students to develop skills that are essential for clinical practice, particularly intravenous fluid delivery, which is commonly used for the majority of hospitalized patients. The purpose of this study was to compare nursing students' self-efficacy before and after learning about intravenous fluid administration (LRC Pocket). Design, The study is carried out in the form of a quasi-experiment. Participants included 83 second-year nursing students. Results, The self-efficacy scores of 2nd year nursing students after learning through the intravenous fluid delivery media application were statistically significant at 9.47 by paired t-test (p < 0.01). Conclusions, Using the intravenous fluid delivery media application to improve and encourage nursing students to be more active confident and skilled in fundamental practice is crucial for them, especially for those who are afraid to ask their lecturer questions in class; additionally, they can learn by themselves through the application. © 2022 Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications.
