Abstract

Nursing programs are responsible for ensuring student nurses are competent in performing psychomotor skills before clinical experience to ensure patient safety. Traditional, face-to-face methods of evaluating skills are time-consuming for nursing faculty. However, online video recording tools provide a potential solution to provide a quality evaluation while creating a more efficient process. The purpose of this study was to compare faculty work hours, the number of student errors identified by the faculty, and the number of students achieving a passing score when using an online video recording tool versus the traditional face-to-face approach in the evaluation of peripheral intravenous catheter insertion in third-term, associate degree nursing students. The theoretical framework guiding the research was Kurt Lewin's Change Theory. A review of 37 pre-licensure students' peripherally inserted intravenous catheter skill checklists and faculty timesheets revealed that significant time savings were achieved when faculty utilized an online video recording tool compared to a face-to-face method. There was no statistically significant difference in errors identified by the faculty or student success. Implications of the study include that online video recording tools for psychomotor skill evaluation in pre-licensure nursing students is an effective method to achieve timesavings for faculty with minimal effect on error identification or student success.
