• Health care providers who take care of patients diagnosed with sepsis need to evidence-based practice education.
• In situ simulation is gaining respect in the creative educational world.
• This study compared in situ simulation and self-study module on sepsis knowledge and retention.
ObjectiveCompare the effectiveness of simulation to a self-study article on short- and long-term knowledge retention among critical care health care providers.MethodologyThis study used a two-group single-blinded randomized controlled design and was conducted at seven community hospitals in the Midwest United States. Participants answered a demographic questionnaire and completed a knowledge test related to sepsis care management. Participants were randomized to either the treatment intervention (simulation) or the standard intervention (self-study article). Immediately after the education intervention and again at 3 months after the education intervention, participants completed the same knowledge test.ConclusionOverall, there was no significant difference in knowledge test scores between groups of participants who received simulation and self-study. Knowledge scores for both groups improved after the educational intervention.
