Background: The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the necessity for innovative educational methods in nursing. Our study takes a unique approach using a multidisciplinary simulation design, which offers a systematic and comprehensive strategy for developing virtual reality (VR) simulations in nursing education.
Objective: The aim of this study is to develop VR simulation content for a pediatric nursing module based on a multidisciplinary simulation design and to evaluate its feasibility for nursing education.
Exploring the potential use of the metaverse in nurse education through a mock trial.
Nurse Educ Today
December 2023
Background: The metaverse has been attracting attention as a space for the application of education, where integrating the real and virtual worlds offers immersive 3D experiences. Consequently, its potential for higher education, including nursing, is being explored as a dynamic alternative to traditional education.
Objectives: This study explores the applicability of metaverse in nurse education.
Article Synopsis
- - This review examined the effectiveness and quality of studies on infant sleep interventions using actigraphy, a method for objectively tracking sleep patterns in infants in real-life settings.
- - It analyzed eleven studies, revealing that while most interventions improved sleep outcomes for both infants and parents, the benefits to parents were less consistent; only two studies showed low risk of bias.
- - The findings highlight the need for better methodological standards and reporting in future research to enhance the assessment of infant sleep through actigraphy.
Effectiveness of a Strength-Based Intervention into Nursing Education in South Korea.
Psychol Res Behav Manag
August 2023
Purpose: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of strength-based interventions integrated into the nursing education.
Materials And Methods: The participants were 259 baccalaureate nursing students in South Korea. Over 15 weeks, strength-based intervention was integrated into the regular nursing curriculum.
Background: Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, virtual reality simulation, including web-based simulation, has increased in nursing education. This study explored nursing students' self-directed problem-solving in web-based virtual simulation experiences.
Method: Convenience sampling yielded 16 Korean senior nursing students who had experienced clinical practice in the last semester.
Objectives/design: Infancy is a crucial period for establishing an individual's sleep pattern, and it is a common period during which infants and mothers experience sleep problems. The aim of this qualitative study was to explore the sleep ecology of infants under 2 years of age and their mothers.
Setting/participants: The study participants were 20 mothers with infants aged 3-19 months living in South Korea.
Aim: This study examined the effects of a 12-week school-based "We Fit" weight control programme.
Design: A nonequivalent control group was used, with a non-synchronized pretest-posttest design.
Methods: In total, 109 Korean high school adolescents participated.
Purpose: Adolescents are interested in weight control but likely practice unhealthy weight control behaviors. This study aimed to examine weight control behaviors associated with body mass index (BMI) in Korean adolescents.
Design And Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study of 16- to 19-year-old adolescents (97 girls and 90 boys), analyses were conducted of physical activity, sedentary behaviors, dietary behaviors, and self-efficacy for physical activity and diet.
Purpose: This qualitative descriptive study sought to identify perceptions about and status of weight control in adolescents from the perspective of adolescents and their teachers.
Methods: Focus groups were used with six separate groups, 20 adolescents divided into four groups and 14 teachers divided into two groups. The qualitative data were analyzed using a thematic analysis in NVivo 11.
Voluntary stand-up physical activity enhances endurance exercise capacity in rats.
Korean J Physiol Pharmacol
May 2016
Article Synopsis
- Involuntary physical activity from avoiding electrical shock improves endurance in animals, but the effects of voluntary stand-up physical activity (SPA) are less understood.
- A 12-week study with male Sprague-Dawley rats compared a control group to a group encouraged to perform SPA by adjusting food height to promote lifting their body weight.
- Results showed that the SPA group had lower body weight and improved endurance (higher grip strength, running time, and distance) compared to the control group, suggesting SPA could be a valuable method for enhancing exercise capacity without forced stimuli.
Antidiabetic effects of Vigna nakashimae extract in db/db mice.
Biosci Biotechnol Biochem
March 2012
The inhibitory activity of Vigna nakashimae extract against intestinal α-glucosidase was investigated in vitro and in vivo. The extract exerted a significant inhibitory effect against intestinal α-glucosidases. With sucrose-loading, it reduced the peak responses of blood glucose significantly in normal mice.
