Abstract

The purpose of this study was to measure knowledge acquisition and retention among nursing students participating in a blood administration simulation. Knowledge acquisition was measured with a pre-test prior to the simulation and with a post-test following the simulation. Knowledge retention was measured the following semester with a case study.
