Purpose: To examine the effect of nursing interventions on maternity nurses' performance regarding the care of women undergoing hysteroscopy. Design: A quasi-experimental design was used. Setting: The Gynecological department at Menoufia University hospitals. Sample: A purposive sample containing 45 nurses for six months. Instruments: The instruments used for data collection were a structured interview questionnaire sheet, and the nurses’ performance observational checklist. Results: Nurses had higher level of knowledge on post -test related to definition, indications, suitable time, complications, time needed for diagnosis, and time needed for therapeutic or surgical treatment of hysteroscopy (100%) compared to (2.2%) on pretest. Also they had higher level of performance on posttest (91.1%) than pretest (13.3%) related to pre, intra, and post-operative preparation for women undergoing hysteroscopy. The present study revealed that there was a high statistically significance difference between the studied nurses' total knowledge score and their residence, there was a high statistically significance relation between the studied nurses' total practice level regarding the care of women undergoing hysteroscopy and their socio-demographic characteristics in the residence. While there was a high statistically significant positive correlation between the total knowledge score and the total practice level of studied nurses. Conclusion: The studied nurses had poor knowledge level and low level of performance regarding the nursing care provided for women undergoing hysteroscopy procedure before introducing the nursing intervention program.
