Abstract

BACKGROUND

Integrating clinical research into nursing practice is essential for improving patient outcomes; however, various factors can affect nurses' participation, despite research being one of their key performance areas. In Namibia, little research exists on the factors influencing nurses' willingness to participate in and use clinical research. The literature indicates that two significant factors affecting registered nurses' participation in and utilisation of clinical research are insufficient time and a lack of motivation to conduct research.

OBJECTIVES

This study explores the factors affecting nurses' participation and utilisation of clinical research at a regional hospital in Namibia.

METHOD

The study employed a qualitative, exploratory, descriptive and contextual design to ensure a comprehensive approach. Sixteen participants working at Intermediate Hospital Rundu were purposefully selected. Data were collected via semi-structured interviews and analysed thematically. Interviews were then conducted until data saturation was achieved. Trustworthiness was ensured according to the four principles of Lincoln and Guba. Ethical clearance and permission were granted by the School of Nursing Research Committee. The ethical principles of autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, and justice were adhered to.

RESULTS

The study revealed three main themes: individual factors, organisational factors, and research-related factors.

CONCLUSION

Strengthening individual research capacities, establishing dedicated research infrastructure and resources, and enhancing the communication and dissemination of research findings will foster a research-oriented culture and facilitate the utilisation of clinical research.Contribution: Understanding these factors will help guide the development of strategies to promote and support nurses' participation and utilisation of clinical research, enhance evidence-based practice and improve patient outcomes.

摘要

背景

将临床研究融入护理实践对于改善患者预后至关重要；然而，尽管研究是护士的关键绩效领域之一，但各种因素可能会影响护士的参与度。在纳米比亚，关于影响护士参与和使用临床研究意愿的因素的研究很少。文献表明，影响注册护士参与和利用临床研究的两个重要因素是时间不足和缺乏开展研究的动力。

目的

本研究探讨纳米比亚一家地区医院中影响护士参与和利用临床研究的因素。

方法

本研究采用定性、探索性、描述性和情境性设计，以确保采用全面的方法。有目的地选择了在伦杜中级医院工作的16名参与者。通过半结构化访谈收集数据，并进行主题分析。然后进行访谈，直到达到数据饱和。根据林肯和古巴的四项原则确保研究的可信度。护理研究委员会学校批准了伦理审查和许可。坚持自主、不伤害、行善和公正的伦理原则。
