Ventilator Associated Pneumonia Care Bundle Prevention on Internship Students' Knowledge and Clinical Performance

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of a self-instructional module regarding ventilator-associated pneumonia care bundle prevention on internship students' knowledge and clinical performance in pediatric intensive care unit.The hypotheses of this study were as follows:

1. Internship students who are taught by VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module exhibit higher scores in knowledge test about VAP care bundle prevention than those who are not. 2. Internship students who are taught by VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module exhibit higher scores in performing the VAP care bundle prevention procedure than those who are not. 3. Internship students who are taught by VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module exhibit more positive feedback about it than those who are not.

Primary outcomes

  1. Nursing Interns' Knowledge

    Time frame: Before data collection, immediately after and after three months of the clinical experience

    total score ranged from 0 to 30 distributed as follows: Low knowledge level <60% of the total score, Moderate knowledge level from 60% to <75% of the total score, High knowledge level ≥75% of the total score.

  2. Nursing Interns' performance

    Time frame: Before data collection, immediately after and after three months of the clinical experience

    Total score ranged from 16 to 32 and distributed as follows:

    Iow performance <60% of the total score, Moderate performance ranging from 60% to <75% of the total score, High performance for the score ≥75% of the total score.

  3. Self-Instructional Module Feedback

    Time frame: immediately after VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module

    It consists of 10 statements with 4 points Likert scale ranging from strongly disagree (1) to strongly agree (4). The higher score, the more positive feedback.
