What this Trial Is About
This research aims to evaluate how a serious digital game can improve knowledge and situational awareness of targeted temperature management (TTM) among critical care nurses. TTM is an important treatment for patients after cardiac arrest, but nurses often have limited opportunities for hands-on training. The study will compare traditional lecture-based teaching alone to lecture combined with the serious game to see if the game enhances learning and patient care quality. Participants will be 120 nurses from adult intensive care units randomly assigned to two groups. One group will receive lecture-based teaching along with access to the serious game featuring interactive cases and real-time feedback. The other group will receive lecture-based teaching only. The study includes a pre-test, post-test one week after the intervention, and a follow-up test at six weeks. Throughout the study, nurses will complete knowledge tests and situational awareness assessments. The experimental group will also rate the usability of the serious game. These measures will help researchers understand if the serious game is an effective educational tool to support better post-resuscitation care. The entire process includes baseline testing, post-intervention evaluation, and longer-term follow-up.
