The knowledge level of nurses regarding care techniques plays a crucial role in the prevention of central venous catheter-related infections. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of training on central venous catheter care (CVCC), provided to nurses caring for pediatric oncology patients, on their knowledge level and infection prevention behaviors. The study aims to determine the effectiveness of an educational program intended to enhance nurses' knowledge and practical skills in preventing CVC-related infections, thereby contributing to evidence-based practices that improve patient safety.
