This study evaluated an intervention for patient-handling equipment aimed to improve nursing staffs' use of patient handling equipment and improve their general health, reduce musculoskeletal problems, aggressive episodes, days of absence and work-related accidents. As a controlled before-after study, questionnaire data were collected at baseline and 12-month follow-up among nursing staff at intervention and control wards at two hospitals. At 12-month follow-up, the intervention group had more positive attitudes towards patient-handling equipment and increased use of specific patient-handling equipment. In addition, a lower proportion of nursing staff in the intervention group had experienced physically aggressive episodes. No significant change was observed in general health status, musculoskeletal problems, days of absence or work-related accidents. The intervention resulted in more positive attitudes and behaviours for safe patient-handling and less physically aggressive episodes. However, this did not translate into improved health of the staff during the 12-month study period.
本研究评估了一项针对患者搬运设备的干预措施，旨在改善护理人员对患者搬运设备的使用情况，增进他们的总体健康，减少肌肉骨骼问题、攻击事件、缺勤天数以及与工作相关的事故。作为一项前后对照研究，在两家医院的干预病房和对照病房的护理人员中，于基线期和12个月随访时收集问卷数据。在12个月随访时，干预组对患者搬运设备的态度更为积极，且特定患者搬运设备的使用有所增加。此外，干预组中经历身体攻击事件的护理人员比例较低。在总体健康状况、肌肉骨骼问题、缺勤天数或与工作相关的事故方面未观察到显著变化。该干预措施带来了更积极的态度和安全搬运患者的行为，以及更少的身体攻击事件。然而，在为期12个月的研究期间，这并未转化为工作人员健康状况的改善。
