Therefore, the current study conducted to improve pediatric critical care nurses' knowledge and practice regarding restraint application and children's outcomes. Subjects and Method: Design: A quasi-experimental non-randomized intervention design pre-posttest one-group was utilized. Subjects: A convenience sample of 43 nurses working in Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICUs) at Mansoura University Children's Hospital (MUCH) affiliated to Mansoura University, Egypt was recruited in the present study. Results: The current study showed that nurses take the decision of restrain without parents' permission or participation. Sedation is the alternative to physical restrain in PICUs as reported by nurses. The most common health problem among children is respiratory problem and the prevalence of restraint related complications reduced post intervention phase compared to baseline data. In addition, there is an improvement in the total level of knowledge. Reported and observed practices post intervention also, were improved as compared to pre intervention with statistically significant differences. Conclusion: The current study concluded that, the training program application is the best approach to improve knowledge and practices regarding using of physical restraint and reducing restraint related complications among children.

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a leading cause of patient morbidity in hospitalized patients with COVID-19; it is a common and potentially fatal complication. Knowledge and effective practice on VTE prophylaxis are vital for the proper patients’ management. Inadequate knowledge and poor practice of health professionals towards VTE prophylaxis increased patients' complications. The aim of the study: assess nurses' knowledge and practice regarding prevention of deep venous thrombosis among hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Design: A descriptive exploratory design. Setting: The study was conducted at Al Kasr Al Einy Teaching Hospital (Cairo University Hospitals). Subject: A convenient sample includes 100 nurses from the previously mentioned setting. Tools: Data were collected using two tools; a Knowledge self-administrated questionnaire and a practical observational checklist. Results: results showed that less than half of the studied nurses were more than 30 years. Majority of them were female, more than half had Institute of nursing, and majority of them had experience more than 6 years. There was no a statically significant correlation between nurses' knowledge and practices and the demographic data. Conclusion: The findings of this study indicated about two-thirds of studied nurses were an unsatisfactory level of knowledge and the majority of them had an incompetent level of practice regarding prevention of DVT among hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Furthermore, there was a statically significant correlation (P<0.05) between total nurses' knowledge and practices. Recommendations: Continuous educational programs to enhance the nurse's knowledge and practices regarding DVT prevention among hospitalized patients with COVID-19.
