Two tools were used for this study: knowledge assessment tool, and practice assessment tool. Results: There was a significant increase in the percentage of satisfactory knowledge and practice of critical care nurses after educational program compared with that before educational program (86.7% and 100% Vs. 0.00% and 15%) for knowledge and practice, respectively with minimal decline of satisfactory knowledge at follow up to 75 % and 81.7% for knowledge and practice, respectively. Conclusion: A significant improvement in the knowledge and practice of critical care nurses regarding central venous catheter after educational program was noted.
