Operating room nurses, as essential members of health care teams, often face ethical challenges in the operating room. By using the ethical experiences of operating room nurses, a better understanding of ethics in the operating room can be achieved, which can lead to better nursing decisions in the face of these challenges. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate operating room nurses' lived experiences of ethical codes.
A hermeneutic phenomenological study was performed in Hamadan (Iran) from February 2019 to November 2020. Ten operating room nurses were selected as participants by purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth and semi-structured interviews. Data analysis was performed based on Van Manen methodology.
Data analysis revealed three main themes and 11 sub-themes representing the operating room nurses experience of the ethical code. The main themes were; adherence to professional commitments, preserving patient dignity, and respect to colleagues.
The results underlined ethics and ethical values in the operating room. Due to the intense interactions between operating room nurses with the patient and surgical team, commitment to ethics by nurses can lead to improving quality of care and interactions among members of the surgical team. It is suggested that using these codes as a guideline and a framework could be developed to improve the ethical and professional performance of operating room nurses.
手术室护士作为医疗团队的重要成员,在手术室中经常面临伦理挑战。通过运用手术室护士的伦理经历,可以更好地理解手术室中的伦理问题,从而在面对这些挑战时做出更好的护理决策。因此,本研究旨在调查手术室护士对伦理准则的生活经历。
2019年2月至2020年11月在伊朗哈马丹进行了一项诠释现象学研究。通过目的抽样选择了10名手术室护士作为参与者。通过深入和半结构化访谈收集数据。基于范曼恩方法进行数据分析。
数据分析揭示了代表手术室护士伦理准则体验的三个主要主题和11个子主题。主要主题为:遵守专业承诺、维护患者尊严和尊重同事。
结果强调了手术室中的伦理和伦理价值观。由于手术室护士与患者和手术团队之间的密切互动,护士对伦理的承诺可以提高护理质量和手术团队成员之间的互动。建议以这些准则为指导方针和框架,以提高手术室护士的伦理和专业表现。
