Nurse-administered blood transfusion (BT) is a common form of medical treatment, but nursing students are often excluded from participating in and observing BTs during clinical placements. To address clinical placement limitations, nursing educators have increasingly adopted technology-guided simulation pedagogies, including virtual reality (VR) simulation, for nursing students' clinical skills education.

Blood transfusion knowledge scale (optimised version of the routine blood transfusion knowledge questionnaire [RBTKQ-O])
A 34-item scale with score ranging from 0 to 34, higher scores indicate higher levels of blood transfusion knowledge.
Time frame: 12-week
Student satisfaction and self-confidence scale [SSSC]
A 13-item scale with score ranging from 13 to 65, higher scores in both subscales refer to higher satisfaction levels with the intervention and self-confidence in conducting blood transfusion practice, respectively.
Time frame: 12-week
General self-efficacy scale [GSES]
A 10-item scale with score ranging from 10 to 40, higher scores indicate higher levels of self-efficacy regarding blood transfusion practice.
Time frame: 12-week
