Brief Summary Pressure injuries are damage to the skin and underlying tissue that may occur in patients who stay in bed for long periods, have limited mobility or use medical devices. These injuries are often preventable. They may cause pain, infection, longer hospital stays and increased care costs. For this reason, it is important that nurses and nursing students have accurate knowledge, confidence and positive attitudes about preventing pressure injuries. The aim of this study is to compare two different methods of teaching pressure injury prevention to nursing students. One group of students received the education in a face-to-face classroom session. The other group completed the same topic through an artificial intelligence-supported modular e-learning programme. The e-learning programme included short videos, clinical examples, question-and-answer activities, short quizzes and feedback. The educational materials prepared with artificial intelligence support were checked by experts before being used with students. Undergraduate nursing students took part in the study. The students were randomly assigned to one of two groups. In both groups, measurements were taken before the education, immediately after the education and four weeks later. The study assessed students' knowledge of pressure injury prevention, their confidence in managing pressure injury prevention and their attitudes towards prevention. This study does not provide a treatment or direct intervention to patients. However, its findings may help improve how nursing students and future healthcare professionals are educated about pressure injury prevention. In the long term, better education may support safer patient care, help prevent pressure injuries and improve the quality of care.
