Aims: To evaluating of the two methods on nurse's KAP about autonomic dysreflexia in Spinal Cord Injured (SCI) people.

Methods: In the quasi-experimental study 73 nurses were selected based on purposive sampling and randomly assigned presence (lecture) or non- presence (booklet and reminder) training group. Data were collected before and after intervention via a researcher-made questionnaire considering KAP dimensions after obtaining acceptable validity and reliability (r=0.6). Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 11 and more comparisons were done using independent T and paired T test.

Results: Mean years of nursing were 11 ± 8.6 and 15 ± 8 and mean SCI caring years was 6.8 ± 3.6 and 7.4 ± 5.5 in non- presence and presence methods respectively. Despite "low" score in Knowledge and "weak" score in attitude and performance dimensions, their KAP significantly improved to "good" level in both groups. No significant difference was found in nurse's KAP comparing the two methods.

Conclusion: The non- presence (booklet and reminder) method showed that it’s as effective as lecture method in promoting nurse's KAP score. Evaluating the two methods is recommended in large sample size and in various nursing fields.
