Evaluation of nurses’ knowledge and practice regarding sepsis management: “A case study of adult ICU/HDU setting at CHUK”
The study found that nurses had moderate knowledge but poor practice in sepsis management. Lower education levels and lack of sepsis-specific training were key contributing factors. This highlights the need for continuous education and targeted training programs. Future research should explore the lived experiences and challenges nurses face in managing sepsis to inform more effective interventions.
