| Abstract Background: Asthma is a common condition that leads to coughing, wheezing, tightness of the chest and breathlessness in about 1 in 10 children. Low quality of care can cause permanent damage to the airways for this reason. Aim of the study: The aim of the study was to identify the effect of an educational training program on quality of nursing care provided to children having asthma. Subjects and methods: Research design: A quasi- experimental design was used in the study. Setting: The study was conducted at outpatient Pediatric chest clinic and pediatric inpatient chest unit at Zagazig University Hospital, outpatient chest clinic at Chest Hospital and pediatrics unit at El-Ahrar Hospital. Subjects: A convenient sample of 50 nurses who provided direct care to children having asthma. Two tools were developed. Tools of data collection: a Tool one was structured interview questionnaire sheet and tool two was an observational checklist. An educational training program was developed to educate the studied nurses about care provided to children having asthma. Results: indicated that the studied nurses' practice had been improved significantly after implementation (high quality of care was 92% posttest Vs 2% pretest) of the educational training program. Conclusion: it was concluded that the educational health program improved the quality of care that was provided to children having bronchial asthma. Recommendations: It was recommended that nurses should attend formal training programs that use the same methods of teaching for the management of children having bronchial asthma | ||
