Introduction: medication administration is one of the most crucial responsibilities of nurses because they are in charge of the preparation and administration of high-alert medications that affect the patient's cardiovascular and hemodynamic functions. To ensure the safety and efficacy of drug therapy, emergency room nurses must have a thorough understanding and proper practice of inotropes. Likewise, they must evaluate each patient before administering a drug, delay it or suspend it if necessary. Just as important, nurses need the skills to be able to administer a medication and maximize the drug's effectiveness. Objective: To determine the relationship between knowledge and practices on the administration of inotropic drugs by nurses from the emergency service of the Santa Gema de Yurimaguas hospital, 2022.
