Methods: Participants were recruited from the NICUs of three hospitals--one university-affiliated hospital and two general hospitals located in Busan, South Korea. Using convenience sampling, 116 staff nurses with at least 3 months of NICU experience were surveyed between March and November 2025. For comparative analysis, participants were divided into three career groups based on their NICU experience: <3 years, 3-9 years, and ≥9 years. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, analysis of variance, and the Scheffé test with IBM SPSS ver. 25.0, and importance--performance analysis (IPA) was conducted to prioritize educational needs. Results: Across all career groups, the "direct nursing performance" domain showed the highest task performance. Novice nurses with <3 years of experience reported significantly higher performance in central line care and transfusion management than those with ≥9 years of experience. The IPA identified central line management, and transfusion management as priority areas for improvement, while vital sign monitoring, respiratory surveillance and discharge education for parents were common educational needs regardless of experience level. Conclusion: Educational programs for novice NICU nurses should focus on strengthening patient safety--related competencies and should be progressively structured with simulation and case-based learning to enhance clinical performance. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
