Non-probability purposive sampling technic was adopted while selecting the setting and samples. Total 51 nurses were selected to answer the research questionnaires.

Likewise, 49(96.1%) of participants had adequate practice and only 2(3.9%) participants had inadequate practice regarding care of the patients with mechanical ventilator.
