Brief Summary

This quasi-experimental study evaluates the effect of a health nanotechnology educational program on nursing interns' knowledge and self-perceived innovation readiness. Approximately 356 nursing interns at the Faculty of Nursing, Mansoura University, will complete a pretest assessment before participating in an 8-week educational program covering nanotechnology fundamentals, applications in healthcare and nursing, and related innovation topics. A posttest will be administered two months after program completion to assess changes in knowledge and innovation readiness.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Knowledge of Health Nanotechnology

    Change in nursing interns' knowledge scores related to health nanotechnology, measured using the Health Nanotechnology Knowledge Assessment Tool (NKAT), a 50-item tool with scores ranging from 0 to 50, where higher scores indicate better knowledge.

    Baseline (pre-intervention) and two months after completion of the 8-week educational program

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Innovation Readiness

    Baseline (pre-intervention) and two months after completion of the 8-week educational program
