Objective: To evaluate the influence of clinical simulation as an educational strategy on the knowledge of undergraduate Nursing students regarding the assessment, prevention, and management of pressure injuries. Methodology: A quasi-experimental study was conducted in May 2023 with undergraduate Nursing students. A simple random sample of 20 students was selected. The study was carried out in three stages: 1) pre-test; 2) implementation of the intervention (clinical simulation); and (3) post-test. For both the pre- and post-tests, a validated instrument was used: the Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Test by Caliri and Pieper. Descriptive analysis and repeated measures Student's t-test were performed. A significance level of 5% (p<0.05) was adopted. Results: Most participants were female (90%) and aged between 20 and 26 years. After the educational intervention, knowledge levels about pressure injuries significantly increased (p<0.001), with notable improvements in identifying preventive strategies, such as the use of protective creams (from 45% to 85%) and proper repositioning in bed (from 10% to 55%). Conclusion: The study assessed the influence of clinical simulation on the enhancement of Nursing students’ knowledge regarding the assessment, classification, prevention, and treatment of pressure injuries. The findings indicated that the strategy employed effectively promoted the development of essential competencies for nursing practice, contributing to the training of future professionals.
