Abstract
This multi-site study evaluated the usability of a virtual reality (VR) game with haptics for refreshing aseptic catheterization skills in 291 nursing students. Findings revealed that undergraduate nursing students are prepared to use and practice skills using VR and may practice and retain more key concepts when using VR.
