简要总结
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of kangaroo care guideline-based training for nurses on nurses' knowledge level, kangaroo care practices and Attitude Towards Evidence-Based Nursing scale scores.
The study was parallel group (experimental-control), randomized controlled experimental design with pretest-posttest design.
It was carried out in the neonatal intensive care unit of Selçuk University Faculty of Medicine Hospital in Konya province. Study data were collected from 32 newborn nurses between October 2022 and January 2023. Premature infants in the intervention (n = 16) and control groups (n = 16) were determined by randomization method.
详细描述
Neonatal nurses in the intervention group were trained on the kangaroo care guide, but no application was made to the control group. Data were collected using the BP Information Form, BP Practice status, and the Attitudes Toward Evidence-Based Nursing Scale. Data were collected as a pretest before the application and as a posttest after the application. Pearson Chi-Square Test, Yates Correction and Fisher's Exact Test were used to compare categorical data according to groups. Two Independent Sample t Test was used to compare normally distributed variables and Mann Whitney U Test was used to compare non-normally distributed variables. Statistical significance level was accepted as p˂0.05.

结局指标
主要结局
Kangaroo care information form
时间窗: Change from baseline and post test (15 days later).
It contains information questions about kangaroo care in line with the literature.
Kangaroo care application status
时间窗: Change from baseline and post test (15 days later).
It determines the application status of kangaroo care application steps.
Attitude Scale Towards Evidence-Based Nursing
时间窗: Change from baseline and post test (15 days later).
The scale consists of three subscales (Beliefs and expectations, Implementation intention and Emotions) and 15 items. The scale is a 5-point Likert type (1=strongly disagree, 2=disagree, 3=somewhat agree, 4=agree, 5=completely agree). The lowest score from the scale is 15 points and the highest score is 75 points. A high score indicates a positive attitude towards evidence-based nursing.
