Enhancing the research abilities of clinical nurses is a pivotal aspect of nursing management. The purpose of this survey is to assess the current state of research abilities among pediatric nurses and to identify the associated influencing factors, thereby providing empirical support for the improvement of research competencies in pediatric nurses.
Pediatric clinical nurses at a tertiary children's hospital in Nanjing, China from May 1st to 31st, 2024 were included for survey. Self-assessment scale for nursing staff's scientific research ability was utilized to assess the comprehensive research ability. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were conducted to evaluate the influencing factors.
A total of 436 pediatric nurses were included. The total score for the nurses' research ability was (47.03 ± 13.66), the research abilities of pediatric clinical nurses were at a low level. Pearson correlation analysis showed that educational level(r = 0.563), professional title(r = 0.528) and the frequency of receiving scientific research training(r = 0.481) and the frequency of reading nursing-related scientific journals(r = 0.459) were all correlated with the scientific research ability score of pediatric nurses (all P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that educational level, professional title and the frequency of receiving scientific research training were the independent factors influencing the scientific research ability of pediatric nurses (all P < 0.05).
The research abilities of pediatric nurses are currently at a lower level and influenced by a multitude of factors. Clinical nurse managers should implement targeted research ability training for pediatric nurses with different educational qualifications and professional titles.
提升临床护士的科研能力是护理管理的关键环节。本次调查旨在评估儿科护士科研能力的现状,并找出相关影响因素,从而为提高儿科护士的科研能力提供实证支持。
纳入2024年5月1日至31日在中国南京一家三级儿童医院工作的儿科临床护士进行调查。采用护理人员科研能力自评量表评估综合科研能力。进行Pearson相关分析和多元线性回归分析以评估影响因素。
共纳入436名儿科护士。护士科研能力总分为(47.03±13.66),儿科临床护士的科研能力处于较低水平。Pearson相关分析显示,学历(r = 0.563)、职称(r = 0.528)、接受科研培训的频率(r = 0.481)以及阅读护理相关科研期刊的频率(r = 0.459)均与儿科护士的科研能力得分相关(均P < 0.05)。多元线性回归分析表明,学历、职称和接受科研培训的频率是影响儿科护士科研能力的独立因素(均P < 0.05)。
儿科护士的科研能力目前处于较低水平,且受多种因素影响。临床护士长应针对不同学历和职称的儿科护士开展有针对性的科研能力培训。
