Background: As nursing practice evolves as the healthcare system adapt to meet modern demands the adaptation of new medical technologies has become increasingly essential. While technological advances offer significant potential to improve nursing skills and improve patient care many nurses struggle with difficult to keep up with rapidly changing technologies. Key challenges include complexity of new technologies and their usability, information overload and organizational and cultural barriers. Innovative nursing practices can improve competencies and patient outcomes especially when innovations are aligned with nursing needs. Continuous professional development is also crucial as nurses must be supported by technologies and methodologies that evolve with healthcare demands.

Methods: The research applied the descriptive methodology in the study, where in the subject variables were intentionally measured and analyzed quantitatively, utilizing a self-formulated questionnaire.

Result: The study reveals that the majority of respondents are young, female, and have less than five years of experience in their profession. While they agree that new medical technologies are complicated and challenging to use, they do not view them as causing information overload or negatively impacting decision-making in clinical setting. Additionally, respondents do not perceive significant organizational or cultural barriers hindering the adoption of these technologies.

Conclusion: Nurses find new medical technologies complex and challenging to use, they do not perceive significant issues with information overload or organizational/cultural barriers. The primary challenge appears to be the usability and complexity of the technologies rather than resistance to adoption. Enhancing training and simplifying technology interfaces could help overcome these challenges and promote smoother integration into healthcare settings.
