Abstract

  This interventional study was carried out to determine the effect of education workshop on interns’ knowledge of Qazvin Medical School over childhood nutrition and growth monitoring in 2003-2004.

Based on results obtained in the present study, while 6.8% of interns were classified as having good knowledge before taking part in education workshop it reached to 63.9% after intervention (P<0.05).Furthermore, the two other groups of participants initially categorized as having intermediate (30.9%) and poor (62.3%) knowledge before the intervention decreased to 28.2% and 7.9%, respectively (P<0.05). Results from this study emphasize on the necessity of holding workshop for medical students to promote their knowledge and experience associated with nutrition and growth monitoring chart.
