Nurses play a major role in the health care delivery system; therefore, education of nurses is critical to successful prevention programs for persons with HIV. Little is known about nurses' knowledge of HIV in India. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a nurse-led train-the-trainer HIV education program on improving the HIV knowledge of nurses. A group of senior nurses (N = 10), were responsible for training a cohort of 10 nurses each, totaling 100 nurses. The 2-day training program included HIV epidemiology and etiology, infection control, psychosocial support, counseling, modes of transmission, natural history of the disease, symptoms of early and late disease, diagnostic testing, and legal and ethical issues. Pre- and posttest scores were calculated using a self-administered structured questionnaire that measured HIV-related knowledge in terms of cognitive and transmission knowledge. Paired t-tests indicated that both measures of HIV knowledge improved significantly from pretest to posttest.
护士在医疗保健提供系统中发挥着重要作用；因此，护士教育对于针对艾滋病毒感染者的成功预防项目至关重要。在印度，人们对护士的艾滋病毒知识了解甚少。本研究的目的是确定由护士主导的培训培训师艾滋病毒教育项目对提高护士艾滋病毒知识的效果。一组资深护士（N = 10）负责对每组10名护士进行培训，共计100名护士。为期两天的培训项目包括艾滋病毒流行病学和病因学、感染控制、心理社会支持、咨询、传播方式、疾病自然史、疾病早期和晚期症状、诊断检测以及法律和伦理问题。使用一份自我管理的结构化问卷计算前后测分数，该问卷从认知和传播知识方面衡量与艾滋病毒相关的知识。配对t检验表明，从测试前到测试后，艾滋病毒知识的两项指标均有显著提高。
