A rising worldwide health concern, infertility is impacted by a number of environmental and lifestyle factors. With cutting-edge methods like intrauterine insemination, intracytoplasmic sperm injection, and in vitro fertilization, assisted reproductive technology gives infertile couples hope. Because they provide clinical care, education, and emotional support before, during, and after assisted reproductive technology procedures, nurses are essential to its success. The purpose of this study is to assess nurses’ knowledge and awareness about assisted reproductive methods and the immune outcomes among the resulting children. A structured interview questionnaire will be used to gather data from 130 nurses as part of a descriptive cross-sectional design. The instrument assesses nurses' knowledge of assisted reproductive technology principles, practices, side effects, and their roles in the field. Descriptive and inferential statistics will be used to examine the data using SPSS software in order to ascertain how knowledge levels and demographic factors relate to one another. The study also will draw attention to the possible immunological alterations seen in assisted reproductive technology, conceived offspring, highlighting the significance of continuing nurse education and early monitoring. It is anticipated that the results would highlight nurses' knowledge gaps and encourage ongoing professional development to raise the standard of assisted reproductive technology nursing care.
