Efficacy of an Educational Program Based Intervention in Improving Nurses’ knowledge Toward Radiation Protection Measures: A Randomized Controlled Trails

Introduction: The emission or transfer of energy through space or a material medium as waves or particles is known as radiation. Depending on its capacity to ionize atoms and molecules, it can be divided into two primary types: ionizing radiation and non-ionizing radiation. The aim of the study to Improving Nurses’ knowledge Toward Radiation Protection Measures. Methods: In a true experimental design, a randomized controlled trial is conducted from September 20, 2024, to January 25, 2025, to evaluate how well an educational program-based intervention improves nurses' knowledge of radiation safety measures. Data for this study was gathered using two sections of a questionnaire: Part 1 of the questionnaire covered demographic variables such as "Age, gender, marital status, educational attainment, number of years of employment in your unit, and participation in courses and workshops." Section Two: includes 12 questions pertaining to nurses' understanding of radiation. Data analysis is done using the "Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) software for Windows (Version 26)". Results: The results appearance that nurses’ knowledge of radiation before the program was poor (3.53) and after the intervention it became good (10.60) and continued to be good (10.10) in the secondary test.Conclusion: This study concluded through the program that was applied to nurses towards radiation protection during exposure to it that the nurses had weak knowledge before the intervention and giving the program.
