A common theme among Student Registered Nurse Anesthetists is an impact on their mental and physical wellbeing during didactic and clinical education. This DNP project is aimed for the current Marian University graduate nursing students in the Nurse Anesthesia Program. An evidence-based educational intervention was developed to enhance Student Registered Nurse Anesthetists’ (SRNAs) confidence and knowledge on how to prevent microaggression in the operating room. Over four weeks, the survey was administered to the class of 2024, 2025 and 2026. To investigate this, an online survey was administered using the survey software program Qualtrics. Qualtrics was utilized to deliver the survey link to respondent emails and collect responses electronically. The participants for this project were required to complete a pretest assessing their baseline knowledge on microaggression. After viewing a 20-minute educational PowerPoint presentation, participants were required to complete a posttest. In addition, participant’s confidence will be assessed by the Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning. This is a 13-item instrument designed to measure student satisfaction with simulation activity and self-confidence in learning using a five-point scale (Pence, 2022). This questionnaire was distributed with the pre-and posttest. The results of this project indicated that the educational intervention improved SRNA’s confidence and knowledge related to microaggression in the operating room.
