After the systemic ward round, the nursing students in the experimental group showed
higher scores in nursing procedures, aseptic technique, disinfection and cleaning, disinfectant
use, personal protection, hand hygiene compliance, and disposal of medical waste, compared
to the control group (P < 0.05). This suggests that the standardized ward rounds curriculum
enhanced students’ comprehensive nursing skills, which could effectively prevent hospitalacquired
infection (Table 2).
