| Summary: | Abstract Rapid-cycle deliberate practice (RCDP) is a training method involving brief, repetitive practice cycles with immediate feedback. This study examined the effectiveness of RCDP simulations in Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) training compared to traditional methods. A nonequivalent control group design was applied. Nursing students were divided into an experimental group (n = 30), which received Ludlow’s standardized three-stage prebriefing, video-based formative feedback, repeated ACLS simulations, and debriefing, and a control group (n = 29) that had traditional ACLS simulation. Data collected from April 29 to June 5, 2024, were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 25.0. The results showed significant improvements in ACLS self-efficacy, knowledge, performance skills, and team communication in the experimental group compared to the control group. The findings suggest that RCDP simulation training, with its focus on repetition and immediate feedback, enhances practical skills and confidence in emergency resuscitation scenarios. This approach may be more effective than traditional simulation methods in medical education, particularly in improving clinical performance and patient outcomes. Beyond medical education, RCDP holds potential for clinical training by enhancing proficiency in high-stakes situations such as cardiac resuscitation. Continuous skill refinement through immediate correction in fast-paced environments can improve individual performance and team dynamics, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes. |
