Veriler, araştırmacılar tarafından oluşturulan 26 sorudan oluşan veri toplama formu aracılığı ile elde edilmiştir. Verilerin analizinde; Mann Whitney U Testi, Kruskal Wallis H Testi, Ki-Kare Testi kullanılmıştır.Bulgular: Araştırmada, hemşirelerin tüple enteral beslenmeye yönelik toplam bilgi puan ortalamalarının 10, 44 (Max: 18, min: 0) olduğu belirlenmiştir. Hemşirelerin stoma çevresindeki cilt problemleri (%83,53) beslenme pozisyonu (% 80,59) ve bulantı kusmayı önlemeye yönelik girişimler (%73,53) ile ilgili soruları daha fazla oranda bildikleri saptanmıştır. Hemşirelerin en çok rezidüel volüm (%88,82), pulmoner aspirasyon (%61,76) ve tüp bakımı (%56,47) ile ilgili soruları bilemedikleri saptanmıştır. Yoğun bakım ünitesinde çalışan hemşirelerin diğer klinikte çalışan hemşirelere göre tüple enteral beslenmeye ilişkin soruları daha fazla bildikleri belirlenmiştir.Sonuç: Araştırmanın sonucunda hemşirelerin enteral beslenme konusunda istendik düzeyde bilgiye sahip olmadıkları belirlenmiştir.
