Abstract:
Adequate nurse knowledge is imperative to ensure safe blood transfusion practices. This study evaluates the effectiveness of patient blood management (PBM) workshops on improving nurses' knowledge and practices regarding blood transfusions in Shiraz, Iran. Using Kirkpatrick's model, the study assessed reaction, learning, behavior, and results. A total of 562 nurses attended one of 28 6-hour workshops over 4 months. The results showed a high satisfaction among 80.95% of participants. Mean knowledge scores increased significantly after training, from 47.08 to 74.22 out of 100 (P < .001). At 6 months, the mean performance score was 79.31 out of 100. Significant improvements in knowledge and adherence to transfusion protocols were observed. The study underscores the importance of continuous education and evaluation in enhancing transfusion safety.
