Summary

Aim: This study was conducted to determine the effect of case-based education on the development of clinical reasoning skills of nursing students in critical illnesses.

Methods: The study was conducted between January 20 and June 30, 2021 using a pilot randomized controlled trial design. In the study, 22 volunteer students were assigned to the experimental and control groups by simple randomization. The experimental group was given case-based education to improve their clinical reasoning skills, and the control group continued the standard education process. Data were collected using a Student Information Form, the Clinical Reasoning Case Form (CRCF), the Student Satisfaction with Education Questionnaire, and a Form for Views on the Education. In the evaluation of data, frequency values, Fisher exact test, Mann-Whitney U, and Wilcoxon tests, Cohen's d coefficient for effect size, ITT analysis, and covariance analysis were used.

The education program was carried out on a web platform (Zoom) consistent with the changes in the COVID-19 pandemic process. The CR cases to be used in case-based education were sent to the students via e-mail before the group interview to make sure students came prepared for the group discussion. In case-based education, after the students read the case, they were asked some questions to determine their decisions and reasoning.
