Abstract
ObjectiveTo understand knowledge, belief, practice level of insulin injection and influencing factors of behavior of clinical nurses in tertiary general hospitals, so as to provide the basis for formulating targeted training programs for insulin injection.
MethodsUsing the convenient sampling method, a total of 169 clinical nurses in the adult ward of a tertiary general hospital were selected as the research objects in May 2020. The self-made basic information questionnaire and Insulin Injection Knowledge, Belief and Practice Questionnaire were used for investigation. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors of insulin injection behavior of clinical nurses.
ResultsAmong 169 clinical nurses, the awareness rate of guidelines was 82.84% (140/169) , 95.86% (162/169) of nurses had patient education experience, the incidence rate of insulin injection needle stab injury was 14.79% (25/169) , and 90.53% (153/169) of nurses had the need to receive insulin injection system training. The total scores of knowledge, belief and practice dimensions of the Insulin Injection Knowledge, Belief and Practice Questionnaire for clinical nurses were respectively 60.00 (45.00, 70.00) , 50.00 (49.00, 50.00) and 85.00 (82.00, 85.00) , and the total score of the questionnaire was 189.00 (178.50, 200.50) . The results of binary Logistic regression analysis showed that knowing the guidelines, receiving insulin injection operation training and insulin injection needle stick experience were the influencing factors of insulin injection behavior (P<0.05) .
ConclusionsClinical nurses in tertiary general hospitals have a high level of insulin injection beliefs and behaviors and there are still deficiencies in insulin injection knowledge. In the training work related to clinical insulin injection, attention should be paid to strengthening and maintaining the belief and behavior of standardized insulin injection, emphasizing the safety of insulin injection, and combining with the technical guidelines and specifications of insulin injection, improving the knowledge reserve and application ability of insulin injection of clinical nurses.
