Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the cognitive status of nurses at different levels of comprehensive hospitals in Zhuhai regarding dysphagia in the elderly and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 554 nurses from departments with frequent dysphagia in 8 general hospitals in Zhuhai were selected as the research objects from June to July 2021. The Self-made General Data Questionnaire and Questionnaire of Nurses' Cognition of Dysphagia in the Elderly were used to investigate. Multiple stepwise linear regression analysis was used to analyze the factors influencing nurses' cognition of dysphagia in the elderly. A total of 554 questionnaires were collected in this study, of which 515 were valid, with an effective rate of 92.96%.Results:The total cognitive score of 515 elderly nurses with dysphagia was 94.64 (87.50, 100.00). Multiple stepwise linear regression analysis showed that hospital level, frequency of dysphagia knowledge training, and initial education background of nurses were the influencing factors for nurses' cognition of dysphagia in the elderly ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The higher the hospital level, the more the training times and the higher the initial education background of nurses, the higher the cognition level of elderly patients with dysphagia.
