Healthcare workers may lack knowledge about antibiotic-resistant bacteria and thereby increase the spread of such organisms. The aim of the present study was to describe the relationship between self-rated knowledge and actual knowledge about methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) among 326 Swedish haemodialysis nurses. Data were collected through a postal questionnaire. The findings suggest that ongoing education about MRSA should be provided to haemodialysis nurses, but also that standardised evaluation of adequate knowledge, skills and competencies' regarding safe practices is warranted. Future research should focus on effective mechanisms to ensure that haemodialysis nurses provide safe MRSA care.
医护人员可能缺乏关于耐抗生素细菌的知识，从而增加此类微生物的传播。本研究的目的是描述326名瑞典血液透析护士关于耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）的自评知识与实际知识之间的关系。数据通过邮寄问卷收集。研究结果表明，应向血液透析护士提供关于MRSA的持续教育，而且有必要对安全操作方面的足够知识、技能和能力进行标准化评估。未来的研究应侧重于确保血液透析护士提供安全的MRSA护理的有效机制。
