Abstract

Background: Cardiac catheter ablation has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for both conduction disorders and cardiac arrhythmias. As patients undergo this procedure, nurses play a pivotal role in a wide range of responsibilities and tasks. It is crucial to increase nurse practice and understanding of cardiac ablation. Aim: To assess informational needs regarding cardiac catheter ablation and to provide knowledge support to nurses regarding cardiac catheter ablation. Research design: A descriptive design was utilized in this study. Sitting: The study was conducted in the Cardiology Department at Assiut University Heart Hospital. Sample: A convenience sample of (52) nurses who are working in the cardiology department at Assiut University Heart Hospital. Tools: tool (1), interview questionnaire sheet for nurses, tool (2), Nurses' practice observation checklist sheet.

Conclusion: The study showed that a large percentage of nursing staff members need educational and training courses regarding cardiac ablation, which contributes to improving the nursing service provided to patients.
