We investigated the effects of the Health Belief Model (HBM)-based intervention on nurses' behaviors in terms of keeping surgical instruments moist.
Pre- and post-training surveys about instrument moistening were conducted with the same 356 nurses from a hospital in China. Both of the surveys contained questionnaire concerning general knowledge relating to instrument moistening, perception scale-based questions concerning the same issue, and an inspection form concerning the implementation of moistening procedures. Three months' training was provided for the nurses.
After training, the nurses' knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors for instrument moistening were improved.
The HBM-based intervention can bring about a significant improvement in nurses' compliance with surgical instrument moistening requirements, and corresponding improvements in instrument cleanliness and patient safety.
我们研究了基于健康信念模式（HBM）的干预对护士保持手术器械湿润行为的影响。
对来自中国某医院的 356 名护士进行了术前和术后关于器械加湿的调查。两项调查都包含了与器械加湿相关的一般知识问卷、相同问题的感知量表问题以及关于加湿程序实施的检查表。对护士进行了为期三个月的培训。
培训后，护士在器械加湿方面的知识、态度、信念和行为都得到了提高。
基于 HBM 的干预可以显著提高护士对手术器械加湿要求的依从性，从而相应提高器械清洁度和患者安全性。
