Abstract
Background
The use of electronic medical records (EMRs) in nursing education is essential for enhancing informatics competency. This scoping review explores simulation-based EMR education and its effects on nursing students and nurses.
Methods
Guided by Arksey and O'Malley's framework, we reviewed 12 studies published between 2013 and 2024 across three databases.
Results
Our findings reveal diverse EMR systems and simulation modalities, with high-fidelity simulations using standardized patients or manikins being the most prevalent. Participants reported increased self-confidence, improved documentation accuracy, and enhanced informatics skills following simulation-based EMR education.
Conclusion
Given the rapid technological advancements and the growing importance of nursing informatics, it is crucial for nursing educators to understand the specific EMR features required for effective simulation-based education. This review aims to support the development of nursing curricula that effectively integrate EMR within simulation-based education.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Simulation in Nursing is an international, peer reviewed journal published online monthly. Clinical Simulation in Nursing is the official journal of the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) and reflects its mission to advance the science of healthcare simulation.
We will review and accept articles from other health provider disciplines, if they are determined to be of interest to our readership. The journal accepts manuscripts meeting one or more of the following criteria:
Research articles and literature reviews (e.g. systematic, scoping, umbrella, integrative, etc.) about simulation
Innovative teaching/learning strategies using simulation
Articles updating guidelines, regulations, and legislative policies that impact simulation
Leadership for simulation
Simulation operations
Clinical and academic uses of simulation.
