Summary

This study aimed to evaluate how an educational intervention based on the existing evidence-based guidelines, using both active and passive educational implementetion strategies, could improve the knowledge of nurses regarding managing ETT cuff pressure control.

Hypothesis H1: There is a difference between the training given with the active and passive implementation strategies method in improving the endotracheal cuff pressure control knowledge of intensive care nurses.

Conditions

  • Nurse's Role

Interventions

OTHER

Active implementational educational strategy

4 follow-up visits (active implemantation strategy) were carried out for ETT cuff pressure management using the one-on-one demonstration technique every 21 days. These follow-ups included adherence to evidence-based guidelines, nurses' application of endotracheal cuff pressure measurement and solving the problems encountered during its implementation. Uncertainties associated with evidence-based guidance on endotracheal tube cuff pressure control were clarified during these sessions.

OTHER

Passive implementational educational strategy

Theoretical training on endotracheal tube cuff pressure management through a 4-hour presentation prepared with evidence-based guide and literature. A PowerPoint presentation including endotracheal tube cuff pressure normal values, complications related to endotracheal tube cuff pressure, management of endotracheal tube cuff pressure, endotracheal tube cuff pressure control methods, methods affecting endotracheal tube cuff pressure, how to measure endotracheal tube cuff pressure was made.
