The Effectiveness and Characteristics of Metaverse-Based Nursing Education for Students: A Systematic Review

The evidence suggests that metaverse-based education has the potential to supplement or replace traditional nursing practice education in situations with limited access, such as pandemics. All included studies were Korean quasi-experiments with small sample sizes; thus, the certainty of the evidence is very low. Future research should employ multisite randomized controlled trials, optimize the frequency and intensity of interventions, and assess long-term outcomes to inform future strategies.
