Abstract:
Objective? To investigate the knowledge-attitude-practice level of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) nurses on the Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) system, and analyze its influencing factors, so as to lay a foundation for the establishment of related knowledge training program later. Methods? From October to November 2018,by convenience sampling, ICU nurses in General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University were selected as objects of the study. Self-designed ICU Nurses' Knowledge-Attitude-Behavior on MEWS System Questionnaire was used to investigate the nurses by means of Wenjuanxing online. The influencing factors were analyzed by single factor analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. Results? Totally 92 valid questionnaires were retrieved. The ICU nurses got the score of (68.42±22.09)in the "knowledge of MEWS", and (52.29±19.75) in the "attitude of MEWS" ,and (56.64±18.99) in the "practice of MEWS"; multiple linear regression analysis results indicated that working length, whether or not had contacted MEWS before, and educational background were the influencing factors of the practice of MEWS(P＜ 0.05). Conclusions? The knowledge, attitude and practice of ICU nurses in Ningxia are generally at the medium and low levels, among which knowledge is still acceptable, while attitude and practice are relatively poor. It suggests that managers should focus on attitudes, guide ICU nurses to recognize and actively apply them to assess patients' condition, and actively explore early warning management mode suitable for ICU critical patients.
