| Abstract | ||
| The nursing staff has a crucial responsibility for preventing bloodstream infection in patients who have a central line. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of training nursing staff on infection control guidelines to prevent central line-related bloodstream infections. Method: one-group pre-post-test quasi-experimental research design was used. The study was conducted at the intensive care units of Al-Mahala General Hospital. Three tools were used to collect data about the nursing staff's socio-demographic and occupational characteristics, knowledge, and performance. Results: There was a statistically significant variation in nursing staff's total knowledge and performance score levels between pre- and post-training sessions about preventing central line-associated bloodstream infection (p = 0.001). Conclusion: The current study reveals that almost most of the nursing staff had an incompetent total level of knowledge regarding central line-associated bloodstream infection pre-training session implementation, which improved to almost most having a competent total level of knowledge post-training session implementation, and almost the majority of the nursing staff had an incompetent total level of performance regarding preventing central line-associated bloodstream infection pre-training session implementation, which changed to more than half having a competent total level of performance post-training session implementation. Recommendation: Scheduling on-duty training sessions for nursing staff on the prevention of central line-related bloodstream infection to ensure their competencies. | ||
