ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study was conducted to analyze the findings of qualitative studies about nursing students' experiences with operating room (OR) practices. There is a need to conduct metasynthesis studies to highlight the overarching dimensions of nursing students' experiences in the OR learning environment, identify and summarize key elements, draw attention to the professional implications of the experience, and then help define the future research agenda. This original study is the first metasynthesis of qualitative studies focusing on nursing students' OR practice experiences.DESIGN:
A qualitative metasynthesis.METHODS:
This metasynthesis study was based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement and registered with PROSPERO (International prospective register of systematic reviews) (CRD42021252129). This metasynthesis consists of qualitative studies that included themes, were conducted with nursing students with OR experience, and were published in English between December 2000 and June 2022. Data were analyzed using the two-step metasynthesis procedures proposed by Sandelowski and Barroso.FINDINGS:
This metasynthesis study was carried out by analyzing 12 qualitative studies that met the inclusion criteria, reflected the results of a total of 244 nursing students, and were conducted in 7 different countries. As a result of the analysis of the studies, two main themes and seven subthemes were determined about the OR experiences of nursing students. The main themes of the study included (1) the OR environment and (2) professionalism and career choices.CONCLUSIONS:
The synthesis of studies in this research revealed nursing students' OR experiences and provided evidence about the association between these experiences and their professionalism and career goals. The research drew attention to the limitations and facilitators of the OR learning environment for nursing students and provided guidance for a positive interactive learning environment.
