Use of a Nonimmersive Virtual Reality System for Clinical Thinking in Obstetric Nursing Education: Mixed Methods Study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundTraditional obstetric nursing training faces limitations in inadequate interactivity and nonrepeatable demonstrations, limiting students' development of clinical thinking. Virtual reality (VR) offers a solution for complex health care education, enhancing nursing students' clinical thinking.
objectiveThis study applied the Nonimmersive Virtual Reality System for Clinical Thinking in Obstetric Nursing (NIVRSCTON), grounded in salutogenesis theory, to examine its effects on nursing students.
methodsThe NIVRSCTON was applied under the auspices of the Nursing Virtual Teaching Hub in the Coastal Area (NVTHCA). In September 2023, a convenience sample of 88 undergraduate nursing students from 4 partner institutions participated in the study. A single-group pre-post design and an explanatory sequential mixed methods design were used to measure changes in clinical thinking ability following the training and to assess the system's performance. The quantitative assessment tools included the general information questionnaire, the Clinical Thinking Ability Evaluation Scale (CTAES), and the Evaluation Instrument for Virtual Reality System (EIVRS). Each student was required to submit one reflective journal developed in accordance with the Bass model. Quantitative data were analyzed using IBM SPSS (version 22.0), and qualitative data were thematically coded using NVivo (version 12; QSR International Pty Ltd).
resultsAfter the NIVRSCTON training was completed, the students' overall clinical thinking score increased from 49.08 (SD 11.30) to 80.50 (SD 11.01), indicating a significant improvement (t
conclusionsNIVRSCTON training enhances students' clinical thinking and professionalism. It was well received, confirming its effectiveness. As an obstetric nursing teaching tool, it enhances clinical thinking and professional competence. It may also promote equity and access in nursing education, offering an innovative model for digital nursing education.
