Urinary catheters, which can be urethral or suprapubic, are frequently used to measure urine output, control urinary output during surgery, and provide urine output in individuals with urinary excretion problems such as urinary incontinence and urinary retention (Chadha et al., 2024; Feneley, Hopley, \& Wells, 2015). This practice, which has an important place in patient safety, should be explained to nursing students in line with current evidence-based knowledge, and students should have access to up-to-date information and improve their skills in this regard (Aldridge \& Hummel, 2019; Güven Özdemir \& Kaya, 2023). However, nursing students may not have the opportunity to perform this practice in the clinical field due to the high risk of infection and the fact that the practice requires more sensitivity in terms of privacy than many other practices (Aksoy \& Paslı Gürdoğan, 2022; Chang, 2022; Güven Özdemir \& Kaya, 2023). This situation may prevent students from reinforcing their knowledge and skills, and therefore, after graduation, newly graduated nurses may not have the opportunity to practice this practice in their working life (Aksoy \& Paslı Gürdoğan, 2022; Chang, 2022; Güven Özdemir \& Kaya, 2023).
