| Abstract | ||||
| Peripheral intravenous catheter is the most common invasive hospital procedure applied worldwide and it is utilized for giving medications, intravenous fluids, as well as the blood products. Aim: To evaluate the effect of blended learning program on nurses’ knowledge and practice regarding peripheral vascular catheter insertion for adult patient. Design: A quasi-experimental research design (pre/ post-test). Setting: The current research was conducted in two hospitals, Minia University hospital and Liver University Hospital at Minia City, Egypt. Sample: Convenience sample of all available registered nurses (200) who were caring for patients undergoing PIVC. Tools: Tool I: Demographic characteristics of the participated nurses Tool II: Structured interview questionnaire regarding nurses' Knowledge about Care and Maintenance of PIVC Tool III: Nurses' practice Observational Checklists about care and maintenance of PIVC. Results: The study findings clarified that 89% of nurses had satisfactory total level of practice immediately after implementing the blended learning program compared to (10%) of them before its implementation and decreased to 75% in the follow up phase post program implementation. Conclusion: statistically significant difference was found between pre and follow up assessment regarding nurses' level of knowledge and practice post implementation of the blended learning program. Recommendation: Nurses need continuous education about care and maintenance of PIVC as well they need formal online education about the essential elements in caring and maintenance of PIVC and how to decrease its complications. Hospital nurses must support the blended educational approach to overcome the difficult in maintaining face to face education. | ||||
