Effect of an infection prevention and control training program on hemodialysis nurses' performance in governmental hospitals in the Gaza Strip: a quasi-experimental study

The IPC training program proved effective in enhancing HD nurses' knowledge and adherence to IPC measures in the short term (one-week post-intervention). However, the study's design limitations and contextual barriers suggest that sustained compliance requires addressing systemic challenges such as resource limitations and high workload. These findings support the need for ongoing structured IPC training in resource-constrained settings.

Abstract

The IPC training program proved effective in enhancing HD nurses' knowledge and adherence to IPC measures in the short term (one-week post-intervention). However, the study's design limitations and contextual barriers suggest that sustained compliance requires addressing systemic challenges such as resource limitations and high workload. These findings support the need for ongoing structured IPC training in resource-constrained settings.
