OBJECTIVE
The certified transport registered nurse (CTRN) credential independently validates a registered nurse's advanced knowledge, skills, and abilities in critical care ground transport nursing. After multiple years of mostly modest growth, the number of CTRNs surged in 2020 and 2021 and continues to post strong growth into 2022. The aim of the 2022 Certified Transport Registered Nurse Pulse Survey was to better understand the ways in which CTRN-certified registered nurses value this national ground transport specialty credential and gain insight into factors that may have contributed to the recent surge in CTRN certification.
METHODS
The Board of Certification for Emergency Nursing e-mailed individuals in its database of CTRN credential holders and invited them to complete an 11-question online survey between March 15 and March 28, 2022. Participation in the survey was voluntary. Sixty-three of 297 verified CTRN holders who received the survey responded for a response rate of 21.2%. The survey instrument included discrete field and open-ended questions. Data were deidentified for analysis, and institutional review board exemption was received. Descriptive statistics were used, and counts and percentages are reported.
RESULTS
The highest percentage of respondents (42.9%) have 10 or more years of experience in ground transport nursing, and nearly half (46%) are employed by a stand-alone transport program. Forty-three percent of all respondents reported that ground transport makes up at least 50% of their current role, whereas one third (33.3%) indicated they do ground transport 100% of the time. Critical thinking (87.5%) in the ground transport environment, confidence as a ground transport nurse (87.5%), and a sense of accomplishment and pride (94.6%) were the top 3 perceived benefits of being a CTRN-certified nurse.
CONCLUSION
The 2022 CTRN pulse survey identified current CTRN demographics, practice environments, and perceived benefits of the CTRN credential. The findings suggest CTRNs are highly experienced and perceive multiple intrinsic and extrinsic benefits of CTRN certification, many of which are essential to safe, evidence-based nursing practice in the autonomous, complex, and dynamic ground transport environment.
目的
注册转运护士（CTRN）资质独立验证了注册护士在重症地面转运护理方面的先进知识、技能和能力。经过多年的缓慢增长，CTRN的数量在2020年和2021年激增，并在2022年持续强劲增长。2022年注册转运护士脉搏调查的目的是更好地了解获得CTRN认证的注册护士如何看待这一全国性地面转运专业资质，并深入了解可能导致近期CTRN认证激增的因素。
方法
急诊护理认证委员会向其CTRN资质持有者数据库中的个人发送电子邮件，邀请他们在2022年3月15日至3月28日期间完成一项包含11个问题的在线调查。参与调查是自愿的。297名收到调查的经核实的CTRN持有者中有63人回复，回复率为21.2%。调查工具包括离散字段问题和开放式问题。数据在分析前进行了去识别处理，并获得了机构审查委员会的豁免。使用描述性统计，并报告计数和百分比。
结果
最高比例的受访者（42.9%）有10年或以上的地面转运护理经验，近一半（46%）受雇于独立转运项目。所有受访者中有43%报告称地面转运至少占其当前工作的50%，而三分之一（33.3%）表示他们100%的时间都在进行地面转运。在地面转运环境中的批判性思维（87.5%）、作为地面转运护士的信心（87.5%）以及成就感和自豪感（94.6%）是成为CTRN认证护士的前三大感知益处。
结论
2022年CTRN脉搏调查确定了当前CTRN的人口统计学特征、执业环境以及CTRN资质的感知益处。研究结果表明，CTRN经验丰富，并且认识到CTRN认证带来的多种内在和外在益处，其中许多对于在自主、复杂和动态的地面转运环境中进行安全、循证护理实践至关重要。
