Nurses are integral to bioterrorism preparedness, but nurses' bioterrorism preparedness knowledge has not been evaluated well.
Missouri Nurses Association members (1,528) were studied in the summer of 2006 to assess their bioterrorism knowledge and the perceived benefits of education as well as barriers to education.
The response rate was 31%. Most respondents (60%, n = 284) received no bioterrorism education. Nurses who were nurse practitioners (t = -2.42, p < .05), were male (t = -2.99, p < .01), or were on a planning committee (t = -1.96, p = .05) had received more education than other nurses. The most commonly cited barrier to education (46.6%, n = 221) was not knowing where to obtain training. One third of respondents (31.2%) reported no interest in receiving bioterrorism education in the future. Nurses' average score on the knowledge test was 73%. The most commonly missed questions pertained to infection control and decontamination procedures.
Bioterrorism preparedness training should be offered through continuing education and nursing school curricula.
护士是生物恐怖主义防范工作不可或缺的一部分，但护士的生物恐怖主义防范知识尚未得到充分评估。
2006年夏天对密苏里护士协会的1528名成员进行了研究，以评估他们的生物恐怖主义知识、对教育的感知益处以及教育障碍。
回复率为31%。大多数受访者（60%，n = 284）未接受过生物恐怖主义教育。执业护士（t = -2.42，p <.05）、男性（t = -2.99，p <.01）或在规划委员会任职的护士（t = -1.96，p =.05）比其他护士接受的教育更多。最常被提及的教育障碍（46.6%，n = 221）是不知道从何处获得培训。三分之一的受访者（31.2%）表示未来对接受生物恐怖主义教育不感兴趣。护士在知识测试中的平均得分为73%。最常答错的问题与感染控制和去污程序有关。
应通过继续教育和护理学校课程提供生物恐怖主义防范培训。
