Abnormalities in these bodily fluids can have catastrophic implications. Aim: Effectiveness of an educational program about fluid, electrolyte and Acid Base disturbances among acute liver failure patients on nurses' competency and patients' outcomes. Patients and Methods: quasi-experimental research design. Participants: A convenience sample of 50 nurses working in the intensive care unit at a liver hospital and eighty patients with acute liver failure. Method: Three tools were used to collect the data: the Tool (I): Before/after knowledge estimation questionnaire and the Tool (II): Before/after observational checklist. Tool (III): was a patients' outcomes evaluation sheet used to assess the effect of an educational program on nurses' competency about fluid, electrolyte, and acid base disturbances among acute liver failure and Patients' outcomes. Results: The majority of nurses have insufficient total knowledge before the teaching program; after the teaching program, the mean score improved significantly, and patients outcomes improved. Conclusion: Implementing a teaching program leads to important progress in nurses' knowledge and acute liver failure patients' outcomes. Recommendations: continuous In–service training programs for the purpose of updating nurse`s knowledge and acute liver failure patients' outcomes.","PeriodicalId":320622,"journal":{"name":"Assiut Scientific Nursing Journal","volume":"19 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140506892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
