Abstract

Aim: This systematic review was conducted to systematically examine studies that evaluate technology-based educational methods used in the training of urinary catheterization skills. Methods: The study population consisted of 236 articles accessed through searches in the databases “TR Dizin,” “PubMed,” and “Cochrane” between January and September 2025. For the systematic review, articles published in the last 15 years in Turkish or English were selected using the keywords “urinary catheterization skill”. Studies were included if they were original research articles or systematic reviews focusing on technology-based educational methods. A total of 24 articles that met the inclusion criteria were selected as the sample for this study. Results: Studies evaluating the effectiveness of technology-based educational methods used in urinary catheterization skills training predominantly included nursing students as the study population. A wide range of educational methods were identified, including simulators, video recordings, skills training videos, haptic technology, mobile applications, simulation scenarios, virtual reality, next-generation e-learning modules, and web- and mobile-based educational approaches. The studies included in the systematic review demonstrated that innovative educational methods used in urinary catheterization skills training were effective in facilitating learning. In addition, different educational approaches were found to facilitate the learning process and increase participants’ motivation. Conclusion: Technology-based educational methods appear to be an important educational approach for the acquisition and development of urinary catheterization skills among nursing students by enabling the learning process to be structured according to individual learning needs. These educational methods were found to have positive effects on participants’ learning processes and urinary catheterization skills when implemented either independently or in combination with traditional classroom-based education.

Özet

Amaç: Bu sistematik derleme, üriner kateterizasyon becerisinin eğitiminde kullanılan teknolojiye dayalı eğitim yöntemlerini değerlendiren çalışmaları sistematik olarak incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Çalışmanın evrenini Ocak-Eylül 2025 tarihlerinde “TR Dizin”, “Pubmed” ve “Cochrane” veri tabanları taranarak ulaşılan 236 makale oluşturmuştur. Sistematik incelemeyi, “üriner kateterizasyon becerisi” ve “urinary catheterization skill” anahtar kelimeleri ile son 15 yılda yayınlanmış, yayın dili Türkçe ve İngilizce olan, teknolojiye dayalı eğitim yöntemlerini kapsayan araştırma makaleleri/sistematik derlemeler oluşturmuştur. Bu makalelerden araştırma kriterlerine uygun olan 24 makale, çalışmanın örneklemini oluşturmuştur. Bulgular: Üriner kateterizasyon becerisi eğitiminde kullanılan teknolojiye dayalı eğitim yöntemlerinin etkinliğini belirlemek için yapılan araştırmalarda, çoğunlukla örneklemin hemşirelik öğrencilerinin oluşturduğu belirlendi. Üriner kateterizasyon becerisinin eğitiminde simülatörler, video kayıtları, beceri eğitim videoları, haptik teknolojisi, mobil uygulamalar, simülasyon senaryoları, sanal gerçeklik, yeni nesil e-öğrenme modülleri, web ve mobil tabanlı eğitim yöntemleri gibi birçok farklı yöntemin kullanıldığı belirlendi. Sistematik inceleme kapsamındaki araştırmalarda, üriner kateterizasyon becerisi eğitiminde kullanılan yenilikçi yöntemlerinin öğrenmede etkili olduğu görüldü. Ayrıca, farklı eğitim yöntemlerinin öğrenim sürecini kolaylaştırdığını, katılımcıların motivasyonunu artırdığı belirlendi. Sonuç: Teknolojiye dayalı eğitim yöntemleri, öğrenme sürecinin bireysel gereksinimleri doğrultusunda yapılandırılmasına olanak sağlayarak hemşirelik öğrencilerinin üriner kateterizasyon becerilerinin kazanılması ve geliştirilmesinde önemli bir eğitim yaklaşımı olduğu görülmektedir. Bu eğitim yöntemlerinin, katılımcıların üriner kateterizasyon becerileri üzerinde geleneksel sınıf eğitimi ile birlikte veya ayrı olarak sunulduğunda katılımcıların öğrenme süreçlerine olumlu etkilerinin olduğu görülmektedir.
