Core Tip Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) is currently the most widely used treatment for urolithiasis. It requires appropriate surgical and nursing-based healthcare measures. Nurses play a vital role in maintaining aseptic techniques and preventing hospital-acquired infections through infection control measures. Professional healthcare systems must ensure that nurses have up-to-date knowledge of appropriate and well-developed protocols. The present study demonstrated that implementing structured nursing instructions on infection control measures for patients undergoing PNL resulted in a significant improvement in nurses’ clinical performance and compliance with infection control standards. However, conducting further long-term randomized controlled trials is highly recommended.
