affected with cancer. However, chemo-radiotherapy regimens have a negative impact on future
fertility. Oocyte cryopreservation is one of the available methods to females to preserve their
fertility. Study Aimed to evaluate the effect of educational package for oncology nurses regarding
fertility preservation among female cancer patients. Subjects and Method: A quasi-experimental
pre and post-test design. Purposive sampling consisted of 61 nurses selected according to the
inclusion criteria. The study conducted at oncology center, Mansoura University Hospital. Tools:
Self-Administered Structured Questionnaire, Nurses' knowledge regarding fertility preservation,
Nurse's attitude towards Fertility Preservation and Nurses Satisfaction Scale. Results: There was
statistically significant improvement in the total knowledge score regarding fertility preservation
from (8.2 ±3.1) pre-intervention to (12.3 ±5.4) post-intervention with highly significant difference
(P= 0.001). The total attitude score of the study sample regarding fertility preservation were
improved significantly from (26.5 ±4.9) pre-intervention to (40.4 ±4.6) post-intervention with highly
significant difference (P= 0.001). Furthermore, the majority of nurses were satisfied, their
satisfaction level reach 73.8%. There was significant association between the post-intervention total
knowledge and attitude level among the nurses (X2 7.389, p=0.025). Conclusion: Educational
package was effective to improve the nurses' knowledge and attitudes towards fertility preservation
as a novel method to sustain future reproductive capacity in newly diagnosed cancer female patients.
Recommendations: The importance of considering this novel method to sustain fertility
preservation in newly diagnosed cancer female patients as one of the main items in the nursing
curriculum and evolve protocols and pathways to empower timely counselling and communication
between health care team and the newly diagnosed cancer patients regarding fertility preservation
options. Also, the need for a multidisciplinary collaboration between oncology health team and
reproductive health care providers to improve awareness and availability of future fertility
preservation in newly diagnosed cancer patients.
