This questionnaire consists of (five) main parts. The first part is about personal information, the second part is about fluid administration in various settings (emergency room, operating room, and intensive care unit), the third part is about fluid administration behaviors, the fourth part is about workplace location, and the fifth part is about a case study. Filling out this questionnaire will take approximately 60 minutes of your time.

Intravenous Fluid Therapy knowledge Scoring

The principle for scoring these scales is the same in all cases:

1. Estimate the average of the items that contribute to the scale; this is the raw score. Calculating the raw score=(I1+I2+I3+…+In)/n.
2. Use a linear transformation to standardize the raw score, so that scores range from 0 to 100; a higher score represents a higher ("better") level of knowledge. Formula use for standardization: Knowledge Score = {1-(Raw score-1)/range} X100

The maximum score is 100 (better outcome) The minimum score is 0 (worse outcome)

All the information related to intravenous fluid therapy is divided into five domains: (1) basic knowledge about electrolyte fluids, (2) intravenous fluid administration, (3) intravenous fluid composition, (4) fluid resuscitation, and (5) assessment of fluid volume status.
