| Abstract | ||||
| children. The study evaluated the effect of an-educational program on knowledge and practice of nurses caring for nephritis children. A quasi-experimental design was utilized on 57 pediatric nurses caring for nephritis syndrome children. Two tools were utilized for data collection; self-administered questionnaire sheet included personal characteristics of pediatric nurses, knowledge, and observational checklist for evaluation the nursing practices of children. The results showed that majority of them had unsatisfactory knowledge and inadequate practice about nephritis syndrome before program implementation. This was significantly improved in immediate and 3 months after program implementation, with a positive correlation between nurses' knowledge, age and years of experience, also between nurses' practice, age, pediatric year and general experience. | ||||
