Abstract

Objective: Peripheral intravenous catherization procedures are frequently performed on hospitalized patients. The application of the peripheral intravenous catherization is one of the most frequently used invasive nursing procedures. Although peripheral intravenous catheterization is the most commonly performed basic nursing skill and it is the skill that causes the most anxiety during clinical practices. Thereforei this study was conducted to examine nursing students’ levels of knowledge about peripheral intravenous catheterization.
Methods: This descriptive and correlational study’s data were collected from 302 nursing students from February 2019 to April 2019 during the 2018-2019 academic year. The study data were collected using an introductory information form, the Peripheral Intravenous Catheterization Information Form and in face-to-face interviews.
Results: The students’ mean score for knowledge levels about peripheral intravenous catheterization was 66.53 ± 15.00. The students who had graduated from vocational schools of health and the students who were in their fourth year of study had higher levels of knowledge about peripheral intravenous catheterization, and this was a statistically significant difference with the other students.
Conclusion: The nursing students’ level of knowledge about peripheral intravenous catheterization increased with years of study, and they had moderately high levels of knowledge about it during their 4-year undergraduate education.
