This study involved 33 nursing clinical rotation students, using a Consecutive sampling technique. The Correlation validity was tested using Pearson Product Moment with 95% CI (p=0.05) and Cronbach alpha was used to identify the internal consistency.

Results: The mean I-CVI and S-CVI/Ave of the instrument was 1.00. The results showed that 19 of the 25 question items tested had an r-count larger than the r-table (>0.344). The internal consistency test using Cronbach alpha showed a value of α = 0.916.

Conclusions: The Indonesian version of the attitude towards clinical duties instrument with 19 questions has good content validity with excellent internal consistency value.

2024-09-18T21:35:19+07:00

Introduction: Heart failure presents a global concern with significant morbidity and mortality rates. In Nigeria, Heart failure has become prevalent, with patients exhibiting inadequate self-care due to nurses' limited knowledge of management guidelines, lack of motivation to utilize clinical practice guidelines, and difficulties implementing management guidelines that incorporate patient education. The study analyzed the nurses' level of knowledge, degree of attitude, and extent of practicing education on heart failure management guidelines. Also, the relationship between nurses' knowledge and practice in implementing heart failure management guidelines.

Methods: This quantitative study employed a descriptive-correlational survey design. Purposive sampling was employed to select two government-owned hospitals in northeast Nigeria. A stratified random sampling technique was utilized to recruit two hundred twenty (220) nurse respondents. A self-made survey questionnaire was utilized to gain more extensive information from respondents. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman's correlation.

Results: The results showed nurses' insufficient knowledge (Mean 14.5 ± 2.91) of heart failure management guidelines, favorable attitude (mean 4.37 ± 0.43), and high extent of practice (mean 4.16 ± 0.66). Furthermore, a very weak, no significant negative correlation was discovered between knowledge and practice of Heart Failure management guidelines.

Conclusions: Nurses showed positive attitudes toward heart failure patient care, yet inconsistently engaged in patient education despite recognizing its benefits. The absence of a relationship between nurses' knowledge and practice of patient education underscores the need to address factors impeding patient education.
