Midwives (M) and obstetric nurses (ON) play a critical role in providing healthcare for pregnant patients at all stages of pregnancy, and ongoing training and education are essential to ensure the best outcomes. This longitudinal quantitative research study aimed to assess the impact of an educational program on the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of 125 midwives and obstetric nurses regarding care for patients with gestational diabetes and pregnancy-induced hypertension. The original questionnaire consisted of 56 items grouped into 3 subscales assessing knowledge (15 items), attitudes (18 items), and practices (23 items). The questionnaire was administered at three distinct intervals during the educational program: pre-test, post-test, and follow-up at three months. The data were analyzed using ANOVA and Pearson correlation coefficients to determine the significance of the differences between the 3 moments of the administration of the questionnaire. There was a significant increase in the level of knowledge, attitudes, and practices of midwives and obstetric nurses following the training module, which was sustained at 3 months after completion compared to pre-training. The comparative analysis of the total scores for every 3 sets of items revealed the positive impact of the educational program on the level of knowledge, attitudes, and practices of midwives and obstetric nurses.
助产士（M）和产科护士（ON）在为孕妇提供各阶段的医疗保健方面发挥着至关重要的作用，持续的培训和教育对于确保最佳结果至关重要。本纵向定量研究旨在评估教育计划对 125 名助产士和产科护士在护理妊娠糖尿病和妊娠高血压患者方面的知识、态度和实践的影响。原始问卷由 56 个项目组成，分为 3 个分量表，分别评估知识（15 个项目）、态度（18 个项目）和实践（23 个项目）。问卷在教育计划的三个不同阶段进行管理：前测、后测和三个月后的随访。使用 ANOVA 和 Pearson 相关系数分析数据，以确定问卷管理的 3 个时刻之间差异的显著性。培训模块后，助产士和产科护士的知识、态度和实践水平显著提高，与培训前相比，完成后 3 个月仍保持较高水平。对每 3 组项目的总分进行比较分析，显示教育计划对助产士和产科护士的知识、态度和实践水平产生了积极影响。
