This study aims to explore the relationship between nursing informatics competencies and clinical decision-making among nurses in Jordan.
A cross-sectional, descriptive-correlational design was used with a sample of 249 registered nurses from three tertiary governmental hospitals in Jordan, utilizing the Self-Assessment of Nursing Informatics Competencies Scale and the Clinical Decision-Making in Nursing Scale.
Nurses reported moderate-to-high informatics competencies ( = 3.17, SD = 0.76) and decision-making abilities ( = 3.30, SD = 0.94). Total nursing informatics competencies score showed a significant positive correlation with all clinical decision-making domains, with the strongest correlation observed for critical thinking (Pearson = 0.57, < 0.05), followed by clinical judgment (Pearson = 0.52, < 0.05).
The findings underscore a significant link between nursing informatics competencies and clinical decision-making, with professional experience, system usage frequency, and informatics training serving as key predictors. These results highlight the importance of targeted interventions to enhance informatics skills and support effective clinical decisions.
本研究旨在探讨约旦护士的护理信息学能力与临床决策之间的关系。
采用横断面描述性相关设计，对约旦三家政府三级医院的249名注册护士进行抽样，使用护理信息学能力自评量表和护理临床决策量表。
护士报告的信息学能力中等偏高（均值=3.17，标准差=0.76），决策能力中等偏高（均值=3.30，标准差=0.94）。护理信息学能力总分与所有临床决策领域均呈显著正相关，其中批判性思维的相关性最强（皮尔逊相关系数=0.57，P<0.05），其次是临床判断（皮尔逊相关系数=0.52，P<0.05）。
研究结果强调了护理信息学能力与临床决策之间的显著联系，专业经验、系统使用频率和信息学培训是关键预测因素。这些结果凸显了针对性干预措施对于提高信息学技能和支持有效临床决策的重要性。
