About this study
Official title: Effect of a Health Nanotechnology Educational Program on Nursing Interns' Knowledge and Innovation Readiness: A Quasi-Experimental Study
This quasi-experimental study evaluates the effect of a health nanotechnology educational program on nursing interns' knowledge and self-perceived innovation readiness. Approximately 356 nursing interns at the Faculty of Nursing, Mansoura University, will complete a pretest assessment before participating in an 8-week educational program covering nanotechnology fundamentals, applications in healthcare and nursing, and related innovation topics. A posttest will be administered two months after program completion to assess changes in knowledge and innovation readiness.
Read the detailed description
The study follows a single-group pretest-posttest design conducted in four phases: Assessment, Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation. In the Assessment phase, baseline knowledge and innovation readiness are measured using two validated tools. In the Planning phase, an educational program is developed based on the pretest results and a review of relevant literature. In the Implementation phase, the program is delivered face-to-face over 8 weeks (24 sessions, 2 hours each, totaling 48 contact hours) using interactive lectures, case-based discussions, and other participatory teaching methods across six content areas related to health nanotechnology. In the Evaluation phase, a posttest is administered two months after program completion to assess changes in knowledge and innovation readiness compared to baseline.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Health Nanotechnology Educational ProgramBehavioural
An 8-week face-to-face educational program (24 sessions, 2 hours each, 48 total contact hours) covering nanotechnology fundamentals, applications in healthcare and nursing, and related innovation topics, delivered through interactive lectures, case-based discussions, and other participatory teaching methods.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Nanotechnology Education Program | Experimental | Nursing interns receiving the 8-week health nanotechnology educational program (24 sessions, 2 hours each) covering nanotechnology fundamentals and applications in healthcare and nursing. Receives: Behavioral: Health Nanotechnology Educational Program |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change in Knowledge of Health Nanotechnology
Change in nursing interns' knowledge scores related to health nanotechnology, measured using the Health Nanotechnology Knowledge Assessment Tool (NKAT), a 50-item tool with scores ranging from 0 to 50, where higher scores indicate better knowledge.
Measured: Baseline (pre-intervention) and two months after completion of the 8-week educational program
Secondary outcomes (1)
Change in Innovation Readiness
Change in nursing interns' innovation readiness scores, measured using the Innovation Readiness Inventory, a 13-item, 5-point Likert scale with scores ranging from 13 to 65, where higher scores indicate more positive perception of innovation readiness.
Measured: Baseline (pre-intervention) and two months after completion of the 8-week educational program
