Background & Aim: One of the basic and important needs of hemodialysis patients is vascular access. Nursing students as members of the health team and future nurses, play an essential role in the safety management of hemodialysis patients and therefore, their training is important to support patient safety. Today, evidence-based education with the objective of explicit and rational use of the best common evidence provides sufficient and necessary knowledge in the field of safe and effective management of patients according to evidence-based guidelines for nursing students. Therefore, the present study was designed and implemented with the aim of determining the effect of evidence-based education on the knowledge of nursing students in the care of hemodialysis vascular access in 2021.
Materials & Methods: In this experimental study, 65 fourth-year nursing students of Urmia College of Nursing and Midwifery were selected and divided into two intervention and control groups. Then, in the intervention group, evidence-based training was provided to students in 4 sessions each for 1.5 to 2 hours, but the control group did not receive any training. Information was collected with demographic information and hemodialysis vascular access questionnaires, and analyzed and compared using SPSS version 16 software.
Results: The results of this study showed that the knowledge scores of nursing students before the intervention did not differ significantly between the two groups (p=0.749). However, the scores of awareness after the intervention were significantly different in the two groups (p=0.0001). On the other hand, there was no significant difference in the scores of knowledge of nursing students about hemodialysis vascular access at the beginning and end of the study in the control group (p=0.107). Also, the scores before and after the knowledge of the students in the intervention group were significantly different (p=0.0001).
Conclusion: According to the findings of the research, it can be concluded that the implementation of evidence-based education was effective on the awareness of vascular access among nursing students. Therefore, it is suggested to emphasize the importance of knowledge of evidence-based guidelines in order to promote the transfer of theoretical knowledge to the bedside for nursing students.
