المستخلص: Background: Globally, 2.7 million children pass away every year, and over 20 million newborns weigh less than 2.5 kg at birth. The majority of newborns with low birth weights are born in underdeveloped nations. While providing kangaroo mother care (KMC) for these mothers, neonatal nurses can offer assistance. Although numerous studies have focused on KMC practice in healthcare settings, research has neglected to focus on the perceptions and practice of KMC by nurses. The study aimed to assess the knowledge and attitudes of nurses towards the application of KMC. Methods: We conducted this cross-sectional study at Faculty of XX, XX University, Saudi Arabia. We included all nurses including students, professors, nursing staff, nursing educators and different nursing specialties at the hospital. We excluded other specialties of medical staff and those who didn‟t want to participate in the study. We also excluded non-Saudi Arabians living in Saudi Arabia. We used an online questionnaire organized via google forms and offline semi-structured interviews for those who don‟t access the internet. The questionnaire was made of three parts: the first included questions about the demographic characteristics of the study participants, the second included 15 questions for the assessment of attitudes toward KMC in neonatal intensive care units, and the third part to assess the ability of participants to give correct answer in order to measure the level of knowledge. Results: According to Likert scale, the 8th item was the only one with very high attitude of participants, 1st, 3rd, 6th, 7th, 13th, 14th, and 15th were of high attitude, 2nd, 5th, 11th, and 12th were of moderate attitude, 4th, 9th, and 10th were of low attitude. The most correctly answered question was the 1st one (92%) followed by the 9th question, while the most incorrectly answered question was the 4th followed by the 2nd one. Conclusion: Good knowledge and attitude toward KC was observed in our study. However, more information should be provided to all the nursing staff in addition to educational programs in order to increase the knowledge and to be able to apply this type of care in clinical practice and achieve positive outcomes.
