    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Education
    • Patient Safety
    • Intravenous Therapy

    Background:

    • Intravenous (i.v.) therapy is a common but complex nursing procedure.
    • Effective i.v. therapy requires comprehensive knowledge of devices and potential complications.
    • Current educational standards for i.v. therapy may not adequately prepare nurses.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess nurses' current knowledge and anxieties regarding intravenous therapy.
    • To identify specific areas of concern related to i.v. devices and patient welfare.
    • To evaluate the adequacy of existing nursing education on i.v. therapy.

    Main Methods:

    • An anonymised questionnaire survey was conducted.
    • The survey collected nurses' views on i.v. therapy education.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Participants were asked about i.v. device use, complications, and patient safety concerns.

    • Main Results:

    • Widespread dissatisfaction with the current level of nursing education on i.v. therapy was reported.
    • Nurses expressed significant concerns about complications and patient welfare.
    • Specific knowledge gaps were identified regarding i.v. device management.

    Conclusions:

    • There is a clear need for enhanced and standardized education for nurses on intravenous therapy.
    • Addressing educational deficits can improve patient safety and reduce therapy-related anxieties.
    • Published guidelines and reports can support the development of improved i.v. therapy training programs.
