Özet
<p>Background: With the pandemic, nursing education has had to adopt rapidly existing and developing technologies and use them in an innovative way. Virtual reality which combines digital learning and simulation has become more widely used in nursing education during the COVID-19 pandemic. Studies in the literature indicate that virtual reality simulation may have the potential to support the development of health and the management of diseases in the field of nursing education and that it can be used in clinical skills training of nursing students. Research and Development Methods: Literature has been reviewed on the use of virtual reality in women's health and diseases nursing education during the pandemic process. Seven studies have been reviewed using the Google Scholar and Pubmed databases, published between 2020 and 2022. Results: In these studies, virtual reality simulation shows that improves nursing students' practice skills on newborn infection control, and the learning motivation and satisfaction of the students in birth education are better with this method. It can be an alternative way to prepare students for the first cesarean section experience. Also, virtual clinics can be used to deal with gynecological diseases. It is stated that virtual clinics increase the level of knowledge in education on gynecological diseases and provide students with an interesting experience in the management of obstetric emergencies, and can be used to improve skills such as leopold maneuvers. Conclusions: The results of the study show that virtual reality simulation has a positive effect on women's health and diseases education, especially in pandemic conditions. However, there is a need for more studies with higher levels of evidence and systematic reviews on this subject. </p><p>Key Words: Virtual reality, simulation, obstetric, gynegologic, nursing, education</p>
