Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the training provided to emergency nurses regarding applying intramuscular injections into the ventrogluteal site. Materials and methods: The research was quasi-experimental, performed with a single group and pre-test/post-test sequence. One hundred sixty-one nurses' ventrogluteal site knowledge levels, frequency of using the ventrogluteal site, and the accurate ventrogluteal site detection rates on the model were evaluated three months after baseline and training. Results: The nurses' mean knowledge scores after training was significantly higher than before training (t=12.323; p=0.001). While using the ventrogluteal site was 37.9%, and the rate of accurate detection of the site on the model was 8.3%, these rates were found to be 54.6% and 48.1%, respectively, after the training. Conclusion: Although the training increased the knowledge level and accurate detection rates, it did not statistically affect the frequency of use of the site.

Purpose: Presenting how blood pressure cuffs are cleaned by nurses and which disinfectant agents are used in cleaning the cuffs will allow conducting detailed studies that can establish a standard procedure for cuff cleaning. However, there is no study on the views of nurses and application procedures regarding the cleaning of blood pressure cuffs. Therefore, this study aimed to determine nurses' attitudes regarding cleaning the blood pressure cuffs in Turkey. Materials and methods: The study sample was composed of nurses working in Turkey who were invited and agreed to participate in the study from February to March 2021. This study was completed with 286 nurses with 90% power. Research data were collected online via Google Forms. Results: In the study, 64.3% of the nurses stated that the cleaning staff should be responsible for cleaning the cuffs. 29.4% reported that the cuffs were cleaned several times a month, and 20.3% stated that cuffs were cleaned only when they were infected. 52.1% reported that alcohol was used for cleaning the cuffs. Conclusions: Nurses agreed on the necessity of cuff cleaning and that the cuffs could be a source of infection when they were not cleaned. Since nurses have an important role in infection control, they should play an active role in cuff cleaning and receive training on this issue.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to examine the effect of using videos during enteral feeding training on the level of relevant knowledge and practice. Materials and methods: A randomized controlled quasi-experimental, post-test research design was used. We included 33 patients and relatives in the video group while 31 patients their relatives in the control group. In video group, the video recording was shown to the relatives in addition to verbal training however only verbal training was given in the control group. The relatives’ level of knowledge and practice score was evaluated. Results: Mean enteral feeding knowledge scores of patient relatives were found to be 76.7 ± 7.97 in the video group and 42.1 ± 12.57 in the control group. Mean enteral feeding practice scores were as follows: 19.64 ± 3.3 for the video group and 13 ± 3.63 for the control group. Conclusions: It was concluded that the enteral feeding training provided by using the video method increased the knowledge and practice levels of patient relatives. Implications for Practice: Video material prepared for the clinic will be a guide for clinical nurses and help them in their enteral feeding training and care planning.
