What this trial studies
This quasi-experimental study uses a pre-test/post-test design to measure changes in ERAS knowledge and evidence-based nursing attitudes among fourth-year nursing students at Istanbul Arel University. Participants receive a structured educational intervention on ERAS concepts and evidence-based practices, with assessments before, one week after, and one month after the training. Analyses will compare knowledge and attitude scores across the three time points to determine any improvement following the education. The study is conducted at the Istanbul Arel University Cevizlibağ Health Campus and is led by Istanbul Arel University with no external collaborators.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, it could strengthen nursing students' ERAS knowledge and support more evidence-based nursing practice after graduation.
How similar studies have gone: Previous education-focused studies in nursing education suggest that targeted training can improve knowledge and attitudes, supporting this approach as feasible.
