About this trial
The goal of this Randomized Controlled Trial is to define the effect of gamified teaching methods for pressure injury prevention in intensive care nurses. The main questions it aims to answer are:
H1: The gamified learning experience will increase the nurses' knowledge of pressure injury prevention compared to the control group.
H2: The gamified learning experience will increase the nurses' skills in pressure injury prevention compared to the control group.
H3: The gamified learning experience will increase the nurses' attitude toward pressure injury prevention compared to the control group.
Researchers will compare two arm to see if there is a difference in knowledge, skills, and attitudes. Participants in the experimental group will be educated via a gamified mobile learning application.
