| Abstract | A quasi-experimental design was used to (1) Evaluate nurses knowledge regarding peritoneal dialysis at pediatric teaching hospitals in Baghdad city, (2) determine the effectiveness of educational program among nurses’ knowledge regarding peritoneal dialysis at pediatric teaching hospitals in Baghdad city, and (3) Identify the relationship between preand post – nurses ’ knowledge score and demographic data, such as age, gender, education, years of employment and training. A purposive “Non-probability” sample of (25) nurses who work in peritoneal medical wards at Pediatric Teaching Hospitals in Baghdad City; Ibn Al-Bildi Maternal and Child Teaching Hospital (n = 11), Child ̓ Central Pediatric Teaching hospital (n = 8), and Welfare Pediatric Teaching Hospital (n = 6). The study results revealed that that there was an improvement in nurses’ knowledge about PD over time for most of the items. This reflects the positive influence of the educational program on nurses’ knowledge about PD. However, that there is no statistical significant association between nurses' age, gender, level of education, years of experience in nursing field, years of experience in pediatric medical wards and their knowledge. On the other hand, there is a statistical significant association between nurses' number of specialist courses and their knowledge. |
