Description
Poonam Joshi and colleagues evaluate in 2026 simulation-based training to cut needlestick injuries among nursing students in eastern India. Such injuries expose trainees to infection risk, and hands-on drills may teach safer habits. Over 200 students joined a two-day blended course with scenario drills and guided review.
Satisfaction was high, and knowledge, reported practice, and attitudes all improved and held at three months. Reported injuries fell sharply after training, though recall periods differed and no control group was used. The authors see promise but call for larger controlled trials before firm claims.
