To evaluate how critical nurses' knowledge of and adherence to current care hand hygiene (HH) guidelines differ between randomly allocated intervention and control groups before and after simulation education in both a simulation setting and clinical practice during a 2-year follow-up period. It was hypothesized that intervention group knowledge of and adherence to current HH guidelines might increase compared with a control group after simulation education.
A prospective, parallel, randomized controlled trial with repeated measurements was conducted in a 22-bed adult mixed medical-surgical intensive care unit in Oulu, Finland. Thirty out of 40 initially randomized critical care nurses participated in the baseline measurements; of these, 17 completed all the study procedures. Participants' HH adherence was observed only in high-risk contact situations prior to and postendotracheal suctioning events using a direct, nonparticipatory method of observation. Participants' HH knowledge was evaluated at the end of each observational session.
The overall HH adherence increased from a baseline value of 40.8% to 50.8% in the final postintervention measurement at 24 months (P = .002). However, the linear mixed model did not identify any significant group (P = .77) or time-group interactions (P = .17) between the study groups after 2 years of simulation education. In addition, simulation education had no impact on participants' HH knowledge.
After a single simulation education session, critical care nurses' knowledge of and adherence to current HH guidelines remained below targeted behavior rates.
评估在为期2年的随访期内,在模拟环境和临床实践中,随机分配的干预组和对照组在模拟教育前后,护士对当前护理手卫生(HH)指南的知识掌握情况和依从性有何差异。假设模拟教育后,干预组对当前HH指南的知识掌握情况和依从性可能会高于对照组。
在芬兰奥卢一家拥有22张床位的成人内科-外科混合重症监护病房进行了一项前瞻性、平行、随机对照试验,并进行重复测量。最初随机分配的40名重症监护护士中有30名参与了基线测量;其中,17名完成了所有研究程序。仅在气管内吸痰事件前后的高风险接触情况下,采用直接、非参与性观察方法观察参与者的HH依从性。在每次观察期结束时评估参与者的HH知识。
在24个月的最终干预后测量中,总体HH依从性从基线值40.8%提高到50.8%(P = 0.002)。然而,经过2年的模拟教育后,线性混合模型未发现研究组之间存在任何显著的组间差异(P = 0.77)或时间-组间交互作用(P = 0.17)。此外,模拟教育对参与者的HH知识没有影响。
经过一次模拟教育后,重症监护护士对当前HH指南的知识掌握情况和依从性仍低于目标行为率。
