The purpose of this study was to measure nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and barriers regarding pain management (PM) of postoperative patients in Jordan.
A descriptive survey research design was used.
This descriptive study adopted a modified version of the "Knowledge and Attitudes Survey Regarding Pain" tool, administered to 120 nurses working in surgical wards.
Nurses had inadequate knowledge of PM, with a mean knowledge score of 63.9%. Knowledge of PM and attitudes toward PM were associated positively with the age of the participant (P = .001), years of experience in the surgical area (P = .026), and academic degree of participants (P = .026).
Surgical nurses in this study had low knowledge levels and poor attitudes regarding PM in postoperative patients. Unless identified barriers to PM are seriously addressed, this vital aspect of holistic care will continue to be marginalized.
本研究旨在衡量约旦护士对术后患者疼痛管理(PM)的知识、态度和障碍。
采用描述性调查研究设计。
本描述性研究采用了“疼痛知识与态度调查”工具的修改版,对120名在外科病房工作的护士进行了调查。
护士对疼痛管理的知识不足,平均知识得分63.9%。疼痛管理知识和对疼痛管理的态度与参与者的年龄呈正相关(P = 0.001),与在手术领域的工作年限呈正相关(P = 0.026),与参与者的学术学位呈正相关(P = 0.026)。
本研究中的外科护士对术后患者疼痛管理的知识水平较低,态度较差。除非认真解决已识别的疼痛管理障碍,否则整体护理的这一重要方面将继续被边缘化。
