Summary

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a serious game in improving targeted temperature management (TTM) knowledge and situational awareness among critical care nurses. A total of 120 nurses from adult intensive care units will be randomly assigned to either a control group receiving traditional lecture-based teaching or an experimental group receiving lecture-based teaching combined with a digital serious game. Outcomes will be measured using a TTM knowledge test, a situational awareness scale, and a system usability scale. The findings will provide evidence for the use of serious games as an innovative educational strategy to enhance post-resuscitation care quality and patient safety.

Conditions

  • Targeted Temperature Management
  • Nursing Education
  • Serious Game
  • Cardiac Arrest

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Serious Game Intervention

A digital serious game designed to train critical care nurses in targeted temperature management (TTM). The game features case-based simulations, interactive decision-making, and real-time feedback to improve clinical reasoning and situational awareness.

BEHAVIORAL

Lecture-based Education

Standard lecture-based teaching covering the principles, procedures, and nursing care of targeted temperature management (TTM). Participants in this group do not receive the serious game component.
