Abstract

This study aimed to describe the knowledge of nurses about the early warning scale (EWS) and analyzing some factors related to knowledge before and after training at the Emergency and ICU in the period 2021- 2022, this was a before-after intervention study, conducted on 30 nurses in the Emergency and Critical Care Department through the EWS knowledge questionnaire. The majority of nurses are female (60%), under 30 years old (56.7%), have had university degrees (66.7%), and have had less than 10 years of experience (83.3%). There was a change in good knowledge about EWS of nurses from 20% (before intervention) to 76.7% (after training), p < 0.05. Three factors that have a statistically significant influence on the mean score of EWS knowledge after training are gender, age group and working seniority.
