Abstract

ObjectiveTo explore the evidence related to how standardized patient simulations are used in undergraduate nursing education according to the NLN (National League for Nursing)/Jeffries Simulation Framework for Simulated Participant Methodology. MethodsThis review used the Preferred Reporting Items of Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Three data sources were used, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), MEDLINE, and PubMed. Peer-reviewed studies published between January 2016 to March 2022 were searched across three data sources. Full-text articles were reviewed using ATLAS.ti software. ResultsThe search identified 196 articles, and 13 articles were included. The lack of safety application, standardized patient hiring, using higher-level outcomes, using policies and procedures, and experiences of students, facilitators, and standardized patients were identified as gaps in the literature. ConclusionsWhile conducting standardized patient simulations in nursing is growing, it is necessary to ensure that the experience is theoretically grounded. Using procedures for implementing the standardized patient simulation method may help design higher quality and efficient learning experiences.
