A study was conducted at Singapore's National University Hospital to elicit registered nurses' attitudes, knowledge, barriers, facilitating factors, education, and training regarding evidence-based practice.
A 13-question survey that was administered to all registered nurses yielded 1,114 (75.4%) usable returns for analysis.
Findings showed that Singapore nurses had a positive and supportive attitude toward evidence-based practice but lacked the competence and knowledge to conduct it. Time constraints were identified as the main barrier to implementing evidence-based practice. There is a need for proper training, mentoring by senior nurses, and adequate time for evidence-based practice. Nurses with a higher level of nursing education who indicated the greatest perceived barriers tended to have less difficulty applying evidence-based practice but identified a need for more training in information skills.
Evidence-based practice is still in its infancy in Singapore compared with hospitals in other developed countries.
在新加坡国立大学医院开展了一项研究,以了解注册护士对循证实践的态度、知识、障碍、促进因素、教育及培训情况。
对所有注册护士进行了一项包含13个问题的调查,共获得1114份(75.4%)可用问卷用于分析。
研究结果显示,新加坡护士对循证实践持积极支持的态度,但缺乏开展循证实践的能力和知识。时间限制被确定为实施循证实践的主要障碍。需要进行适当的培训、由资深护士进行指导以及为循证实践留出充足时间。护理教育水平较高且表示感知到的障碍最大的护士,在应用循证实践方面往往困难较小,但认为需要更多信息技能培训。
与其他发达国家的医院相比,循证实践在新加坡仍处于起步阶段。
