Enteral Nutrition Education Provided Using the Pecha Kucha Method

Short-Term and Long-Term Effects of Enteral Nutrition Education Provided Via the Pecha Kucha Method on Self-Efficacy Levels of Intensive Care Nurses Regarding Enteral Nutrition Practices

Enteral nutrition therapy is essential to prevent or treat malnutrition, reduce infection complications, shorten recovery and hospital stay, and lower hospital costs and mortality rates. Intensive care nurses have responsibilities including diagnosing nutritional deficiencies, preventing complications, and implementing and maintaining enteral nutrition. In recent years, there has been increased interest in innovative teaching methods in the educational literature that enhance learners' attention, reduce cognitive load, and enable effective learning in a short time. The Pecha-Kucha method is a contemporary educational approach that aims to present information concisely and effectively thanks to its visually-oriented and time-limited structure. This study aims to fill this important gap in the literature and provide evidence-based contributions to applicable educational approaches in intensive care settings by revealing the short-term and long-term effects of enteral nutrition education given using the Pecha-Kucha method on the self-efficacy levels of intensive care nurses regarding enteral nutrition.
