Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of scenario-based participatory teaching methods in thoracic surgery nursing education. Methods: Sixty undergraduate nursing students were randomly assigned to two groups: a traditional teaching group and a scenario-based participatory teaching group, with 30 students each. The teaching outcomes of both groups were assessed. Results: The clinical reasoning assessment scores of the scenario-based participatory teaching group were significantly higher than those of the traditional group (P < 0.05). Additionally, the scenario group demonstrated higher satisfaction levels, superior theoretical and practical skills, improved patient education effectiveness during admission and discharge, and enhanced emergency response coordination (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Scenario-based participatory teaching effectively enhances the comprehensive competencies of nursing students in thoracic surgery, demonstrating favorable educational outcomes.
