Summary

This randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effect of animation-based orotracheal suction training on the clinical reasoning competency and knowledge levels of expert pediatric nurses. Orotracheal suctioning is a complex and invasive nursing procedure requiring advanced clinical reasoning, rapid decision-making, and patient safety awareness. Although digital learning approaches are increasingly used in nursing education, evidence regarding their effectiveness among expert nurses remains limited.

A total of 66 pediatric nurses with at least five years of clinical experience and classified as expert nurses according to Patricia Benner's Novice-to-Expert Model were randomly assigned to either an intervention group receiving animation-based mobile training or a control group receiving PowerPoint-supported traditional training. Clinical reasoning competency and knowledge regarding orotracheal suctioning were assessed before and after the educational intervention.
