| Abstract | ||||
| Background:The term "acute pancreatitis" describes inflammation of the pancreas that causes the organ's own enzymes to begin auto-digestion. One of the most important ways to give nurses the theoretical and technical knowledge they need to build the skills and competencies necessary for the continuous improvement of nursing practice is through social media-based education. Aim: To evaluate the effect of social media–based education on nurses’ performance in the care of patients with pancreatitis. Design: A quasi-experimental research design was employed for this study. Setting: The research was carried out in the medical department at Sohag University. Subjects: A convenient sample comprising approximately 50 available nurses was included in the study. Tools: Two instruments were utilized for data collection: Tool 1: a structured interview questionnaire, which consisted of two sections; section one: Nurse’s personal data, section two: Nurse’s knowledge assessment questionnaire, and Tool II: a nurse’s observation checklist. Results: The findings indicated that highly significant differences were noted in the mean scores of nurses' knowledge and practice following social media–based education at P=<0.001 compared to before the education. Conclusion: The study concluded that social media–based education significantly enhances nurses’ performance in the care of patients with pancreatitis.Recommendations: It is recommended to implement ongoing in-service educational programs for nurses caring for patients with acute pancreatitis. Additionally, it is suggested to replicate this research with a larger probability sample drawn from various geographic areas in Egypt to facilitate generalization. | ||||
