| Abstract Background: Blood transfusion had a positive effect on pediatric patients' life; so nurse play an integral role to maintain pediatric patients' safety related to blood transfusion. Aim of the study: was to evaluate the effect of implementing nursing intervention program on nurses' knowledge and practice regarding children undergoing blood transfusion. Subjects and Methods: Research design: A quasi-experimental study design was adopted to carry out this study. Setting: The study was conducted at Pediatric Medicine Departments at Benha University Hospital. Subjects: A convenient sample of fifty nurses who were providing direct nursing care to children. Tools of data collection: Two tools were used in the present study. A structured interviewing questionnaire to explore nurses' personal data and their knowledge regarding blood transfusion for children and observational checklist to evaluate the actual nurses' practice towards caring for children and educational training program to train nurses related to blood transfusion. Results: The present study revealed that, the mean age of nurses was 28.52± 5.06 years and more than half of them weren't attending training courses related to blood transfusion. There were highly statistical significant differences(P<0.001) concerning nurses' knowledge and practice pre/ post implementation and follow up phases of the training program regarding blood transfusion and there was a positive correlation between total nurses' knowledge and practice regarding blood transfusion immediately after post implementation of the training program ( r = 0.539 & p < 0.001).
