Abstract
Introduction: The use of helmet non-invasive ventilators in the treatment of patients with respiratory failure is increasing in intensive care unit. This study was based on the National League for Nursing/Jeffries Simulation Theory and aimed to develop a Helmet Non-Invasive Ventilator education training program and assess its impact on the knowledge, self-efficacy, and clinical performance abilities of intensive care unit nurses.
Design: A non-equivalent control group pretest- posttest design was used.
Methods: The participants consisted of 21 individuals in the experimental group and 22 in the control group. The experimental group received a simulation-based intervention, while the control group received a lecture intervention. The tools used for the study included self-report questionnaires for assessing knowledge and self- efficacy related to the Helmet Non-Invasive Ventilator both before and after the intervention, while clinical performance ability was evaluated post-intervention only by a research assistant under single blinded conditions.
Result: No statistically significant difference in pre and post-test knowledge(t=1.34, p=.093), self-efficacy(t=-1.386, p=0.87) scores between the control group and experimental group. The post-intervention clinical performance ability scores were significantly different, with the control group and experimental group(t=-7.1, p=<.001).
Conclusion: Simulation-based training showed a greater effect in improving clinical performance compared to the lecture group, and both groups demonstrated improvements in knowledge, self-efficacy, and clinical performance after the training compared to before the training.

Description
A study was conducted with 21 participants in the simulation group and 22 participants in the lecture group to assess the effects of training on the use of helmet non-invasive ventilators. The post-intervention evaluation showed a difference in clinical performance between the two groups. Although there were no significant differences in knowledge and self-efficacy between the groups, both groups showed improvements in these areas.
