Randomized Controlled Trial, 80 Nursing Students, Parenteral Medication
ClinicalTrials.gov Studies
Summary
A new ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry (NCT07544810) has been posted for an interventional randomized controlled trial evaluating crossword-based learning for parenteral drug administration among nursing students. The triple-blind parallel-group study will enroll 80 participants (40 experimental, 40 control) using power analysis. The experimental group receives crossword activities across four phases in addition to standard education, while the control group receives standard education only. Primary outcomes include scores on the Parenteral Drug Administration Knowledge Test, Safe Parenteral Drug Administration Self-Efficacy Scale, and Higher Education Learning Motivation Scale, measured at the end of stage 4. The study's anticipated completion date is April 22, 2026.
About this source
ClinicalTrials.gov is the NIH-run registry of every clinical trial conducted in the United States, plus most international trials sponsored by US-based companies or institutions. By federal law, sponsors must register Phase 2 through Phase 4 studies before enrolling patients and post results within a year of completion. This feed tracks every new trial registration and study update, around 700 a month: drug interventions, device studies, behavioral protocols, observational research. Watch this if you scout drug candidates moving into mid or late-stage development, monitor competitor pipelines, or follow rare disease research where new trials signal patient hope. GovPing parses sponsor, phase, intervention, and target indication on each entry.
What changed
A new clinical trial registration has been published on ClinicalTrials.gov for NCT07544810, a randomized controlled trial examining the effects of crossword-based learning activities on nursing students' knowledge, self-efficacy, and learning motivation related to parenteral drug administration. The study employs a triple-blind parallel-group design with 80 participants assigned 1:1 via random assignment. Participants in the experimental group will complete crossword activities across four phases (Initial, Theoretical, Laboratory, and Post-Clinical Practice) alongside standard educational content, while the control group receives standard education alone.
For clinical researchers and nursing education institutions, this registry entry signals an emerging interest in gamified and puzzle-based educational approaches for high-risk clinical skills training. Institutions developing parenteral medication curricula should monitor the study's findings upon completion in April 2026, as positive outcomes could support adoption of similar interactive learning methods in nursing programs.

Puzzle-Based Learning on Nursing Students' Parenteral Medication Knowledge and Motivation
N/A NCT07544810 Kind: NA Apr 22, 2026
Abstract
This randomized, controlled, parallel-group, interventional study aims to evaluate the effects of Crossword-Based Learning for Parenteral Drug Administration on the knowledge level, self-efficacy perception, and learning motivation of Nursing Department students. It is considered original because it examines the effects of crossword-based learning on cognitive and psychosocial outcomes in parenteral drug administration, a skill with a high risk of error in the clinical field. The study will be conducted with 80 (40 Experimental, 40 Control) nursing students selected through a power analysis. Participants will be assigned to groups by random assignment, and the study will be conducted in accordance with the triple-blind principle (participant, data collector, statistician). The experimental group will receive Crossword Activities in four different phases (Initial, Theoretical, Laboratory, and Post-Clinical Practice) in addition to the standard educational content. The control group will only complete the standard education. The primary outcomes of the study are; At the end of the 4th stage, the Parenteral Drug Administration Knowledge Test will be evaluated based on the Safe Parenteral Drug Administration Self-Efficacy Scale (SES-SES) and the Higher Education Learning Motivation Scale (SLS-SES) scores.
