Abstract

Pediatric cardiac catheterization is a critical procedure that plays a vital role in diagnosing and treating congenital heart defects and other cardiac conditions in children. This procedure involves inserting a catheter into the heart chambers or vessels through a vein or artery. Nurses play multifaceted roles throughout the continuum of cardiac catheterization. Objective: To evaluate the practices of nurses about pediatrics cardiac catheterization. Methods: This study employed cross-sectional descriptive design at pediatric department of a District Head Quarter (DHQ) Hospital. Target population was registered nurses of age above 20 years and who had at least 6 months of practical experience with cardiac pediatric patients. Data were collected conveniently through observational checklist and analysis was done through SPSS Version 24.0. Results: Majority nurses were not encouraging bed rest to the pediatric patients nor keep affected extremity bend for 2-4 hours (80%) after catheterization. Moreover, they did not regularly check the vitals of the children and unable to monitor in every 15 minutes /hour or 30 minutes for next hour (81%). Nurses were unable to educate the pediatric parents for the removal of pressure dressing and nor assess the dressing site appropriately (92%). Conclusions: The present study findings suggested that majority nurses have poor practices before and after cardiac catheterization procedure while some have an average level of practices during the procedure. So, training programs should be arranged to enhance the practices of nurses about cardiac catheterization in pediatric population.
