Overview

Cross-sectional study reveals significant gaps in chemotherapy knowledge among nurses in Bangladesh, indicating a need for improvement.

Key Points

  • A majority of nurses (58.1%) were from the age group of 32 or younger, with 90.5% lacking training in cancer management.
  • Poor basic knowledge of cancer was linked to inadequate technical knowledge in chemotherapy preparation and administration (55.2%).
  • Higher levels of poor knowledge were recorded among diploma nurses and those educated in private institutions.
  • The findings underscore the urgent need for continuous education to improve chemotherapy safety and adherence to guidelines.
