FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2022, vol.25, n.1, pp.25-29. Epub Mar 21, 2022. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.251.1166.
Introduction.
High-flow therapy is increasingly used in pediatrics units due to its effectiveness and safety, however it requires specialised training. The purpose of this study is to analyze the level of satisfaction and knowledge acquired after a training course on nursing care in pediatric patients with high-flow therapy.
Subjects and methods.
Multiple group study design via pre- and post-study questionnaires on high-flow knowledge and questionnaire on degree of satisfaction. The sample were professionals and personnel in training who attended the course.
Results.
33 professionals participated. The grade prior to the course was 3.61 (standard deviation ± 1.52) and the final grade was 5.52 (standard deviation ± 0.80) (p < 0.001). The degree of satisfaction was very high (90.9%) or high (6.1%).
Conclusion.
The training was satisfactory and effective, significantly increasing the level of knowledge.
