Abstract:
Objective:To explore the status quo of nurses' perceived hospital ethical climate (HEC) and body constraint knowledge, attitude and practice, and discuss the correlation between HEC and body constraint knowledge, attitude and practice.Methods:Between April and May 2019, totally 400 clinical registered nurses from a Class Ⅲ Garde A hospital in Shanxi province were selected using convenient sampling, and investigated with the general information questionnaire, Hospital Ethical Climate Survey (HECS) and knowledge, attitude and practice questionnaire. The effects of HEC on nurses' body constraint perception were analyzed. Totally 400 questionnaires were distributed, and 387 valid ones were collected, accounting for an effective recovery rate of 96.75%.Results:The total HECS score of the 387 nurses was (89.72±32.78) . Their scores of body constraint knowledge, attitude and practice were (10.86±2.37) , (30.48±2.94) , and (41.82±7.24) , respectively. There were statistically significant differences in the knowledge, attitude and practice scores between nurses with different educational background, professional title and training experience ( P<0.05) . Correlation analysis revealed that the total score and scores of different HECS dimensions were positively correlated with body constraint knowledge, attitude and practice scores ( P<0.05) . Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the relationships with the doctor, the patient, and the manager in HEC were the influencing factors to nurses' body constraint knowledge and attitude, and the relationships with the doctor and the manager in HECS were the influencing factors to nurses' body constraint practice ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:HEC is closely related to nurses' body constraint knowledge, attitude and practice. Creating a sound HEC will help improve nurses' perception of body constraints, thus standardizing nurses' body constraint practice.
