This study evaluates if the implementation of an online platform with procedures and protocols, improve the knowledge of professionals and can have a health impact related to decreased contamination of blood cultures.
This is a Quasi-experimental study, with parallel groups (experimental and control).
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of an Online Learning Platform used by nurses to improve the results of a blood culture technique. The online learning tool is studied in two of four internal medicine units of a tertiary hospital in Madrid. These two units have similar characteristics of personnel, materials and structure. Both units are at a great distance, preventing a professional talk to each other.

| Number of Contaminated Cultures in the Control and Experimental Group Before Intervention and After the Learning Obtained With the Online Training Platform. | The results obtained in each arm of the study are collected month by month in both groups (Experimental and control). The data for each month are summarized for 6 months, reporting the pre-intervention result (for both groups: experimental and control). The data collected during the 3 months following the intervention are also summed during the 3 months, giving a value at the end of this time (month 9 of the study). | assessed monthly, month 6 and 9 reported. |

| Score on the Knowledge Test Related to Blood Culture Extraction Technique for Nurses (K-Blood-CT) | The improvement in the learning of the technique is measured with a test with 20 questions created ad hoc related of blood culture intervention (Blood culture collection knowledge test for nurses). The score ranges from 0 points (worst level of knowledge) to 10 points (best level of knowledge). The results can be divided into intervals: 0-2.99 very deficient; 3- 4.99 insufficient; 5-6.9 good; 7-8.9 notable; > 9 outstanding. |
