ABSTRACT
To determine the efficacy of workshop on body fluids in health and disease and its impact on nurses training. Nurses attended an interactive lecture-based workshop on body fluids in health and disease. Participants had to accept an invitation to the presentation prior to the training event. They completed a multiple choice question [MCQ] test, derived from topics covered in the presentation, prior to the lecture. The MCQ test was repeated after the lecture to assess retention and application of knowledge. Thirty-six nurses participated in the workshop. There was a significant improvement in mean test scores after the lecture when compared with pre-lecture scores [Mean=30.9, SD=4.4 vs. Mean=11.7, SD=3.4, p<0.001]. Pre-post data in according to the Kolmogorove-Smirnov test were normally distributed [Asy mp.sig.05, 0.02]. Lecture based interactive workshop on body fluids in health and disease helps improve nurses' knowledge. It also helps in overcoming deficiencies in nurses training
