Abstract

Background/Aims: The aim of this study was to
determine the knowledge level of nursing department students about kangaroo
care (KC).

Method: The sample
of the descriptive research was composed of 572 students. The data were
collected through a questionnaire developed by the researchers. Number,
frequency, median, minimum and maximum values, Mann Whitney U test and Kruskal
Wallis test were used to evaluate the data.


Results: 83.7% of
the students were female and 49.7% were in the 22-24 age group. 65.2% of the
students stated that they did not know about KC. 72.2% of those who have
knowledge have received the information during their education and 54.6% have
stated that the information they have received is insufficient. When the
average scores of students' knowledge about BP are examined; KC application information
median scores 8.0; The median scores of information on newborn benefits of KC
are 6.0; The median scores of the information about the parent's benefits are
8.0; The median scores of the information on parental characteristics for KC
are calculated as 5.0 and the total information score for the KC is 28.0.


Conclusion: It was determined that the level of knowledge of the nursing students
about KC was moderate. In
line with the results, it has been recommended to include these
issues within the scope of clinical education as well as theoretical training
in order to improve the knowledge and awareness of students about KC practice
and to ensure their transfer to practice.
