Another common type of HAIs is phlebitis. Phlebitis is a common infection associated with healthcare. Phlebitis prevention initiatives are primarily dependent on the expertise of nurses, this knowledge is directly tied to the nurses' performance of their duties and the success or failure of those duties in preventing patients from contracting phlebitis. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between nurse’s knowledge and phlebitis prevention efforts at Idaman Hospital, Banjarbaru City Methods: A cross-sectional, correlational design was adopted for this research. Probability sampling using stratified random sampling is used for the sampling. In all, 129 nurses made up the study's sample. Data was gathered using questionnaires on basic demographics of the nurse, nursing knowledge, and phlebitis prevention efforts by nurse. Results: The results of the study found that there is a correlation between knowledge and efforts to prevent phlebitis at Idaman Hospital, Banjarbaru City (p value=0.001; OR=3.77).
