NCT06090019

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of a self-instructional module regarding ventilator-associated pneumonia care bundle prevention on internship students' knowledge and clinical performance in pediatric intensive care unit.The hypotheses of this study were as follows:

  1. 1.Internship students who are taught by VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module exhibit higher scores in knowledge test about VAP care bundle prevention than those who are not.
  2. 2.Internship students who are taught by VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module exhibit higher scores in performing the VAP care bundle prevention procedure than those who are not.
  3. 3.Internship students who are taught by VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module exhibit more positive feedback about it than those who are not.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Nursing Interns' Knowledge

    total score ranged from 0 to 30 distributed as follows: Low knowledge level \<60% of the total score, Moderate knowledge level from 60% to \<75% of the total score, High knowledge level ≥75% of the total score.

    Before data collection, immediately after and after three months of the clinical experience

  • Nursing Interns' performance

    Total score ranged from 16 to 32 and distributed as follows: Iow performance \<60% of the total score, Moderate performance ranging from 60% to \<75% of the total score, High performance for the score ≥75% of the total score.

    Before data collection, immediately after and after three months of the clinical experience

  • Self-Instructional Module Feedback

    It consists of 10 statements with 4 points Likert scale ranging from strongly disagree (1) to strongly agree (4). The higher score, the more positive feedback.
