This study aimed to evaluate the impact of an educational program on blood and blood products transfusion on nurses' knowledge and performance in hospitals affiliated with Mashhad University of Medical Sciences. The present study was a semi-experimental before-after study. We selected study participants through the simple random sampling method using sampling framework of all reference population. Data collection tool was a valid and reliable questionnaire. In order to evaluate the effect of the educational program on nurses' level of knowledge and practice, we asked them to fill out the questionnaires before and after the education course. We analyzed data using SPSS 22. Descriptive statistics such as frequency and percentages and analytical statistics such as Mann- Whitney, Wilcoxon and Kruskal-Wallis were used to report the results. The significance level of the p-value was assumed to be < 0.05. Our analysis revealed a significant difference in the mean score of the nurses' level of knowledge before and after the education (p=0.001). There was also a significant difference in the mean score of veteran nurses' performance before and after the intervention (p<0.05). The association between sex and mean score of nurses' performance was not significant before and after the intervention. The association between nurses' knowledge score and age, sex, work experience and department of the hospital was not significant (p>0.05). Educational programs about blood transfusion can positively influence nurses' knowledge and performance. There is a need to improve nurses' knowledge and performance about the inadvertent side effects of blood transfusion.
本研究旨在评估一项关于血液及血液制品输血的教育项目对马什哈德医科大学附属医院护士知识水平和工作表现的影响。本研究为半实验性前后对照研究。我们通过简单随机抽样方法，利用所有参考人群的抽样框架选取研究参与者。数据收集工具为一份有效且可靠的问卷。为了评估该教育项目对护士知识水平和实践的影响，我们要求他们在教育课程前后填写问卷。我们使用SPSS 22分析数据。结果报告采用描述性统计（如频率和百分比）以及分析性统计（如曼 - 惠特尼检验、威尔科克森检验和克鲁斯卡尔 - 沃利斯检验）。p值的显著性水平设定为<0.05。我们的分析显示，教育前后护士知识水平的平均得分存在显著差异（p = 0.001）。干预前后资深护士工作表现的平均得分也存在显著差异（p<0.05）。干预前后护士工作表现平均得分与性别的关联不显著。护士知识得分与年龄、性别、工作经验及医院科室的关联不显著（p>0.05）。关于输血的教育项目可对护士的知识和表现产生积极影响。有必要提高护士对输血意外副作用的知识水平和工作表现。
