Abstract

BACKGROUND

Involvement in research activities is complex in pediatric nursing and allied health professionals (AHPs). It is important to understand which individual factors are associated with it to inform policy makers in promoting research.

METHODS

A cross-sectional observational study was conducted to describe the level of participation in research activities over the last ten years of nurses and AHPs working in a tertiary pediatric hospital. A large sample of nurses and AHPs working in an Italian academic tertiary pediatric hospital completed an online self-report questionnaire between June and December 2018. Three multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to predict participation in research projects, speaking at conferences, and writing scientific articles.

RESULTS

Overall, data from 921 health professionals were analyzed (response rate = 66%), of which about 21% (n = 196) reported participating in a research project, while 33% (n = 297) had attended a scientific conference as a speaker, and 11% (n = 94) had written at least one scientific paper. Having a Master or a Regional Advanced Course, working as an AHP or a ward manager, as well as regularly reading scientific journals and participation in an internal hospital research group or attendance in a specific course about research in the hospital, significantly predicted participation in research projects, speaking at conferences and writing scientific papers. It is important to foster research interest and competencies among health professionals to improve participation in research projects, speaking at conferences, and writing scientific papers.

CONCLUSIONS

Overall, we found a good level of attendance at conferences as speakers (33%), a moderate level of participation in research (21%), and low levels for writing scientific papers (11%). Our study highlighted the need to support participation in research activities among nurses and AHPs. Policymakers should identify strategies to promote research among nurses and AHPs, such as protected rewarded time for research, specific education, strengthened collaboration with academics, and financial support. Moreover, hospital managers should promote the development of research culture among health professionals, to improve their research competencies and evidence-based practice.

摘要

背景

儿科护理及专职医疗人员参与研究活动的情况较为复杂。了解哪些个体因素与之相关，对于为政策制定者提供促进研究的信息很重要。

方法

开展了一项横断面观察性研究，以描述在一家三级儿科医院工作的护士及专职医疗人员在过去十年中的研究活动参与水平。2018年6月至12月期间，意大利一家学术性三级儿科医院的大量护士及专职医疗人员样本完成了一份在线自我报告问卷。进行了三项多变量逻辑回归分析，以预测参与研究项目、在会议上发言以及撰写科学文章的情况。

结果

总体而言，分析了921名卫生专业人员的数据（回复率=66%），其中约21%（n=196）报告参与了研究项目，33%（n=297）作为演讲者参加过科学会议，11%（n=94）撰写过至少一篇科学论文。拥有硕士学位或参加过地区高级课程、担任专职医疗人员或病房经理、定期阅读科学期刊、参与医院内部研究小组或参加医院特定的研究课程，显著预测了参与研究项目、在会议上发言以及撰写科学论文的情况。培养卫生专业人员的研究兴趣和能力对于提高参与研究项目、在会议上发言以及撰写科学论文的水平很重要。

结论

总体而言，我们发现作为演讲者参加会议的比例较高（33%），参与研究的水平适中（21%），撰写科学论文的水平较低（11%）。我们的研究强调了支持护士及专职医疗人员参与研究活动的必要性。政策制定者应确定促进护士及专职医疗人员开展研究的策略，如为研究提供有保障的奖励时间、特定教育、加强与学者的合作以及资金支持。此外，医院管理人员应促进卫生专业人员中研究文化的发展，以提高他们的研究能力和循证实践水平。
