Abstract
The study aimed to establish the impact of high-fidelity simulation (HFS) in the objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) of nursing students enrolled in four undergraduate courses (medical-surgical, critical-care, maternal-health and paediatric nursing). This quasi-experimental research study was performed during the midterm and final OSCEs of nursing students at the institution, and their OSCE performance was assessed. The students were divided into two: those who were exposed to HFS in addition to their clinical training and the other group who underwent clinical training without HFS exposure. The combined mean midterm and final OSCE results of the group of nursing students with HFS exposure and those without HFS exposure were 92.58 and 82.66, respectively, with a mean between-group difference of 9.92% (p < .01). Our findings reveal that the HFS exposure in addition to clinical training enhanced the students' OSCE performance.
