Clinical Decision Making Skills [Session]

Abstract

Session presented on Saturday, April 9, 2016:

A simulation study of clinical decision making among nursing students indicates that intuition is associated with enhanced accuracy within familiar clinical situations, particularly for those directly engaged with patient care. In more novel situations, and for those solely observing the scenario, intuition is associated with less accurate decision making.
