Purpose: The purposes of this study were to investigate daycare teachers¡¯ knowledge, anxiety and management of childhood fever and to identify factors affecting their management of childhood fever.
Methods: A descriptive correlation study was conducted. Participants were 109 daycare center teachers from G metropolitan city. A self-administered questionnaire was used for data collection.
Results: The mean percent of correct answers for knowledge about childhood fever was 42.9%. Levels of anxiety related to children¡¯s fever were high among day care teachers in this study. Many daycare center teachers used management practices which were not recommended for childhood fever management. There was a statistically significant difference in participants¡¯ knowledge about childhood fever by marital status and having a child. Moreover, there were statistically significant positive correlation between daycare center teachers¡¯ knowledge and management and negative correlation between daycare center teachers¡¯ anxiety and management of childhood fever. Knowledge and anxiety related to childhood fever accounted for 15.2% of variance for fever management.
Conclusion: Results show that day care teachers¡¯ knowledge and anxiety related to fever are important factors in predicting their fever management. Development and evaluation of educational interventions to improve daycare teachers¡¯ childhood fever management are recommended.
