Needle Stick Injury is a common occupational hazard among Health Care Workers. Most Needle Stick Injuries arise out of unsafe practices and are thus preventable. The study aim to assess the effectiveness of laptop assisted teaching on knowledge regarding needle stick injury among staff nurses working in paediatric units. Methods of data collection procedure: The research approach adopted for the study was quantitative, with Quasi-experimental design. 60 staff nurses were selected (30 experimental and 30 control group) from selected hospitals by Purposive sampling technique. self-structured knowledge questionnaire regarding knowledge on needle stick injury. Was used to data collection. The data obtained was analyzed and interpreted in terms of objectives of the study. Results: this study results reveals that, the post-test mean knowledge score (19.57) was significantly higher than the pre-test mean knowledge score (10.07). As the calculated value (20.148) was greater than table value (2.05) of unpaired t test at significant (p<0.001), suggesting that laptop assisted teaching was effective in increasing the knowledge scores among study subjects. The conclusion of the study was staff nurses had significant gain in knowledge after the administration of laptop assisted teaching regarding Needle Stick Injury.
