Summary

The research is a pre-post-test observation study without a control group, aiming to determine the effect of the training given to nurses on the knowledge and practices of brachial artery blood pressure measurement.

Detailed description

The nurses who were informed about the study and agreed to participate in the study will be followed by two observers at the same time and filled in the "Blood Pressure Measurement Observation Form". Nurses will not be informed by whom and when they will be observed. Each observer will observe each nurse three times (1st observation). After the first observation is over, the "Blood Pressure Knowledge Test" will be applied to the nurses (Pre-test). Then, the training program prepared by the researcher will be uploaded to the hospital automation system and nurses will be asked to follow it. In addition, nurses will be able to log in to the training module and watch the video again and again whenever they want. Nurses will be given a two-week period to follow the training module. At the end of two weeks, the nurses will fill out the "Blood Pressure Information Test" again (2nd test). The "Blood Pressure Measurement Observation Form" will be filled in by the researcher during the blood pressure measurement of the nurses again in the form of the final follow-up (2nd observation).

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Training	A training module was prepared by explaining the theoretical and practical parts of the application of blood pressure measurement from the brachial artery with a slide presentation and an animation video. The knowledge and skills of nurses in blood pressure measurement before education were measured. The training module was delivered to the nurses from the online system. At the end of the two-week training period, the knowledge and skill levels of the nurses will be measured again.
