This study aimed to investigate the current status of knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention among orthopaedic nurses in comprehensive hospitals in Yichang, Hubei Province, China, and to analyse influencing factors to provide a reference for implementing VTE prevention strategies.
From February to March 2024, a total of 257 orthopaedic nurses from nine comprehensive hospitals in Yichang were surveyed using a convenience sampling method and investigated with a knowledge, attitudes and practices questionnaire for VTE prevention. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to identify factors influencing knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding VTE prevention among orthopaedic nurses.
The overall score for knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding VTE prevention among orthopaedic nurses was 88.54 ± 5.73, with knowledge scoring 73.56 ± 7.69, attitudes scoring 95.66 ± 7.79 and practices scoring 95.96 ± 7.04. Position, training frequency, quality inspection and discharge follow-up were significant factors influencing knowledge, attitudes and practices scores (p < 0.05).
In the orthopaedic departments of comprehensive hospitals in Yichang, Hubei Province, China, the overall level of knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding VTE prevention among nurses is generally good, with positive attitudes and practices observed. However, there is potential for improvement in knowledge levels. Recommendations include enhancing standardized VTE training, improving knowledge levels, strengthening health education and ensuring discharge follow-up to optimize VTE prevention efforts.
本研究旨在调查中国湖北省宜昌市综合医院骨科护士对静脉血栓栓塞症（VTE）预防的知识、态度和实践现状，并分析影响因素，为实施VTE预防策略提供参考。
2024年2月至3月，采用便利抽样法对宜昌市9家综合医院的257名骨科护士进行调查，使用VTE预防知识、态度和实践问卷进行调查。进行多元线性回归分析，以确定影响骨科护士VTE预防知识、态度和实践的因素。
骨科护士VTE预防知识、态度和实践的总体得分为88.54±5.73，其中知识得分73.56±7.69，态度得分95.66±7.79，实践得分95.96±7.04。职位、培训频率、质量检查和出院随访是影响知识、态度和实践得分的重要因素（p<0.05）。
在中国湖北省宜昌市综合医院的骨科，护士对VTE预防的知识、态度和实践总体水平较好，态度和实践呈积极态势。然而，知识水平仍有提升空间。建议包括加强VTE标准化培训、提高知识水平、加强健康教育并确保出院随访，以优化VTE预防工作。
