Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Aim:The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a multimedia training on pain management attitudes and practices of paediatric nurses. Design:A single-blind randomized trial. Methods:Paediatric nurses (N = 120) from a public hospital randomly allocated into two groups, lecturing and multimedia training groups. Nurses in the control group received four one-hour training sessions. In the intervention group, the same educational content was used as a film with text, audio and animation and presented as a multimedia CD. In both groups, using a questionnaire, we measured pain management attitudes and skills at baseline and then 1 week and 1 month after the training over. Data were analysed in SPSS20 software, and p < .05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The mean of attitude scores of the lecturing group was 104.74 one week after the study and 109.40 one month later versus 74.72. The above-mentioned scores in the multimedia group were 112.72 and 115.04, respectively, versus 78.70 (p < .001). Also, the mean scores of nurses' performance in the lecturing group before, 1 week and 1 month after the study were 12.48, 26.60 and 28.22, respectively, versus 12.58, 28.68 and 28.98, in multimedia group; this difference was statistically significant (p < .05).
