Attitudes and Practices of Operating Room Nurses toward COVID-19 in Turkey

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı ameliyathane hemşirelerinin COVID-19'a yönelik tutum ve uygulamalarınının belirlenmesidir. Araştırma tanımlayıcı bir tasarımdı Araştırmanın örneklemini 210 ameliyathane hemşiresi oluşturmuştur. COVID-19 hastalığı tanısı konulan ameliyathane hemşirelerinin oranı %12’di. Çalışmada hemşirelerin %91'i ameliyathanelerde COVID-19 salgınına karşı yeterli önlem alınmadığını belirtti. Hemşirelerin %44,3'ü ameliyathanede ortalama 8,6+4,7 saat süreyle N95 maskesi kullandığını ve %45,2'si maskelerini tekrar kullandığını belirttti. En sık alınan önlem, enfekte olmuş malzeme için kapların %95,2 oranında aktif klorür 5.000 mg/L 30 dakika süreyle dezenfeksiyonu olmuştur. Ameliyathane hemşirelerinin %81’i COVID-19 enfeksiyonuna yakalanmaktan ve %96,2'si hastalığı ailelerine bulaştırmaktan korkuyordu. Bu araştırmada, hemşirelerin çoğunun COVID-19 pandemisine karşı yetersiz önlem alındığını düşündüğü saptanmıştır. Ayrıca ameliyathane hemşirelerinin üçte biri COVID-19'da süreç içinde uyum sağlamakta zorlandıklarını belirtti. Hastane yönetimi COVID-19 salgınına yönelik ameliyathane hemşirelerine düzenli aralıklarla eğitim vermesi ve uyumlarını kolaylaştıracak iş akış algoritmaları hazırlaması önerilmektedir.
