Adaptation of Extended Reality Smart Glasses for Core Nursing Skill Training Among Undergraduate Nursing Students: Usability and Feasibility Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Skill training in nursing education has been highly dependent on self-training because of Korea's high student-faculty ratio. Students tend to have a passive attitude in self-practice, and it is hard to expect effective learning outcomes with traditional checklist-dependent self-practice. Smart glasses have a high potential to assist nursing students with timely information, and a hands-free device does not interrupt performance.

Objective

This study aimed to develop a smart glass-based nursing skill training program and evaluate its usability and feasibility for the implementation of self-practice.

Methods

We conducted a usability and feasibility study with 30 undergraduate nursing students during a 2-hour open lab for self-practice of core nursing skills,
