Neonatal nurses can improve infant outcomes by preventing hypothermia. A web-based educational activity effectively increased nurse knowledge and commitment to infant thermoregulation practices.

Area of Science:

  • Neonatal nursing
  • Pediatrics
  • Medical education

Background:

  • Neonatal hypothermia is a significant risk factor for infant morbidity and mortality.
  • Effective thermoregulation practices are crucial for improving infant outcomes post-delivery.
  • There is a need for accessible and effective methods to enhance nurses' knowledge and commitment to these practices.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and implement a web-based educational activity for neonatal nurses.
  • To assess the impact of online education on nurses' knowledge and commitment to thermoregulation.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of a learning management system in delivering this educational intervention.

Main Methods:

  • A quality improvement project was undertaken.
