Abstract:
Objective:To explore the current status of radiological protection knowledge, attitude and practice of nurses in Interventional Catheterization Room, and analyze their influencing factors so as to provide a basis for formulating intervention strategies.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. From April to May 2021, convenience sampling was adopted to select 240 nurses in Interventional Catheterization Room from 32 hospitals of member units of the China Heart Federation as the research subject. The self-designed General Information Questionnaire and the Radiological Protection Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Scale for Interventional Catheterization Room Nurses were used for investigation. Single factor analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to explore the influencing factors of radiological protection knowledge, attitude and practice among nurses of Interventional Catheterization Room. A total of 240 questionnaires were issued, and 220 valid questionnaires were returned with the valid response rate of 91.67%.Results:Among 220 nurses in Interventional Catheterization Room, the scores of radiological protection knowledge, attitude and practice dimensions were (5.92±1.83) , (29.15±1.97) , (43.76±5.73) , respectively. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender, hospital grade and training frequency were the influencing factors of radiological protection knowledge of nurses in Interventional Catheterization Room, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The training frequency and the type of radiological protective equipment were the influencing factors of the radiation protection attitude of nurses in Interventional Catheterization Room, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Gender, training frequency, regular monitoring of radiation dosimeters, and types of radiation protective equipment were the influencing factors of radiation protective practice of nurses in Interventional Catheterization Room ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Interventional Catheterization Room nurses have a low level of radiological protection knowledge, and their attitudes towards radiological protection are relatively positive, but their radiological protection practice is not in place. The radiation protection training of nurses in Interventional Catheterization Room should be optimized, and adequate and high-quality protective equipment should be provided, and gender-specific management should be conducted, personal radiation dose monitoring should be standardized, and the radiation guidance role of Class Ⅲ hospitals should be used to ensure the safety and health of medical and nursing staff.
