About

A quasi-experimental study was conducted in a pre-test-post-test design to investigate the self-efficacy levels of nurses working in a cardiovascular surgery Intensive Care Unit regarding safe blood and blood product transfusion and the effects of online training.

Full description

Blood transfusion is a life-saving and therapeutic procedure, but it also carries high risks. Nurses have the greatest responsibility in preventing complications related to blood transfusion. To maintain safe practice standards, healthcare institutions need to use national transfusion guidelines and establish blood banks/transfusion laboratories, transfusion protocols, and hemovigilance teams. From the moment the blood is collected from the donor to the end of the transfusion, administering the right blood to the right patient, storing the blood appropriately, monitoring the patient for signs of reactions during the procedure, and having sufficient knowledge and skills on precautions to be taken when complications develop are the responsibilities of nurses regarding transfusion. For nurses to fulfill their duties in this regard, they must have up-to-date knowledge, skills, and competence. Since CVS intensive care clinics are where blood transfusion is performed most frequently, it is of particular importance that the nurses working in these units have sufficient knowledge on the subject and are strengthened in this regard. Based on this situation, the research is planned to determine the self-sufficiency levels of nurses working in the CVS intensive care unit regarding blood transfusion and to contribute to the field by eliminating deficiencies in this regard through training.

Experimental group

Description:

- Nurses' self-efficacy levels regarding safe blood transfusion practices will be measured with the Safe Blood and Blood Products Transfusion Self-Efficacy Scale (SBT-SES). SBT-SES pre-tests will be applied to the control and intervention groups, and online training on safe blood transfusion prepared by the researcher will be provided to the intervention group. After the training given to the intervention group, SBT-SES post-tests will be applied to both the intervention and control groups.

Other: online education

control

No Intervention group

Description:

No training will be given, only the Blood Products Transfusion Self-Efficacy Scale (SBT-SES) pre-test and post-test will be conducted.
