Abstract:
Objective:To explore the behavioral intention of nurses for pain management after abdominal surgery based on the planned behavior theory.Methods:According to the framework of planned behavior theory, an interview outline was developed. Using the purposive sampling method, a total of 11 General Surgical Department nurses from the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from July to November 2022 were selected as the interview subjects for semi-structured interviews to understand their behavioral intentions regarding postoperative pain management in abdominal surgery. Colaizzi 7-step analysis was used to analyze the original data. Two researchers repeatedly compared, verified, analyzed and summarized the interview data. When different opinions were generated, the group members discussed and decided together to ultimately determine the code and theme.Results:Based on the three dimensions of behavioral attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control in the theoretical framework of planned behavior, three themes and seven sub-themes were extracted, such as behavioral attitude (positive attitude, negative attitude), pressure sources (group pressure, leadership pressure, patient and family pressure), subjective perception and behavior (imprisonment of comfort zone, insufficient support from external resources) .Conclusions:Most nurses hold a positive attitude towards pain management behavior after abdominal surgery, and the behavioral intention of postoperative pain management is affected by colleagues, leaders, patients and their families. At the same time, there are also obstacles such as insufficient personal ability and insufficient support from external resources.
