Key Points

The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured teaching programme on infection control knowledge among B.Sc. Nursing students in the ICU setting.
Quantitative pre-experimental one-group pre-test/post-test design
Seventy B.Sc. Nursing Part-II students were enrolled via non-probability convenience sampling
A validated 30-item questionnaire assessed knowledge before and after a 45-minute STP.
Mean pre-test knowledge score was 12.76 ± 1.59, while post-test score was 24.91 ± 1.12, indicating large improvement
Area-wise gains were greatest for general information on infection control (66.43%) and lowest for prevention and management (27.82%)
Pre-test knowledge significantly associated with age, area of residence, previous knowledge, source of information, and clinical exposure, all p < 0.05.
