Summary

The goal of this randomised controlled trial is to compare the impact of online educational material versus a classic lecture on the confidence levels, knowledge and knowledge application of final-year nursing students.

Participants will be asked to complete a baseline self-efficacy evaluation and a baseline knowledge test which were validated by the 11-member international expert panel previously established.

After randomization, the control group will be asked to attend a classic 1-hour lecture at the nursing school about the topic of prone positioning and skin/tissue damage prevention.

The experimental group will get access to the PRONEtect educational website containing short simulation videos and other learning materials.

Three weeks later the participants will be asked to complete the self-efficacy evaluation and knowledge assessment again, additionally a knowledge application assessment.

All the questionnaires will be administered via Qualtrics.
