    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Pediatric Nutrition
    • Clinical Pharmacy

    Background:

    • Parenteral nutrition (PN) is critical in pediatric care.
    • Effective education for healthcare professionals on PN is essential.
    • Current educational methods may have limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To design and evaluate a self-instructional package for pediatric parenteral nutrition education.
    • To assess the effectiveness of this package among diverse healthcare trainees and practitioners.

    Main Methods:

    • A self-instructional package on pediatric PN was developed.
    • Participants (medical students, pediatricians, pharmacists, pharmacy students) completed pre- and posttests.
    • Knowledge and confidence in PN order management were assessed.

    Main Results:

    • Participants demonstrated significant improvement in posttest scores compared to pretest scores.
    • Trainees and practitioners reported enhanced understanding of PN therapy.
    • Confidence in writing and checking PN orders increased post-module completion.

    Conclusions:

    • Self-instructional packages are effective for educating healthcare professionals and students in total parenteral nutrition.
    • This educational modality can improve knowledge and practical skills in pediatric PN.
    • The package offers a flexible and efficient learning solution.
