OBJECTIVE
To assess the level of participation of nurses and midwives in health-related research, determine the status of utilization of research to inform nursing and midwifery practice in Kenya, and explore perspectives of nurses and midwives about strategies to empower nurses/midwives to engage in health research in Kenya.
METHODS
Data were extracted from online survey responses of 156 nurse and midwife educators, practitioners, and managers/administrators. SPSS version 26 was used to analyze quantitative data; qualitative data were analyzed using Excel to organize data into categories.
RESULTS
Over one-third of participants reported ever publishing research (37.2%, 58/156). Participants reported using knowledge gained in nursing school to guide practice most frequently ( = 148). Utilization of research findings to guide practice was reported by 80.3% (110/137) of participants. Strategies to enhance participation in the research included research training, research forums, policy reforms, and emphasis on research in curricula.
CONCLUSIONS
There is need to intensify and prioritize proposed strategies to empower nurses/midwives to engage in health research.
目的
评估护士和助产士参与健康相关研究的程度，确定肯尼亚利用研究为护理和助产实践提供信息的现状，并探讨护士和助产士对增强护士/助产士参与肯尼亚健康研究能力的策略的看法。
方法
数据来自156名护士和助产士教育工作者、从业者以及管理人员/行政人员的在线调查回复。使用SPSS 26版分析定量数据；定性数据使用Excel进行分析，将数据整理成类别。
结果
超过三分之一的参与者报告曾发表过研究成果（37.2%，58/156）。参与者报告最常使用在护理学校学到的知识来指导实践（=148）。80.3%（110/137）的参与者报告利用研究结果指导实践。增强研究参与度的策略包括研究培训、研究论坛、政策改革以及在课程中强调研究。
结论
有必要强化并优先实施所提出的策略，以增强护士/助产士参与健康研究的能力。
