Abstract:
PURPOSE: This study was done to identify nursing interventions performed by operating room nurses using the Perioperative Nursing Data Set (PNDS). METHOD: The data were collected from 88 operating room nurses, from August 1 to October 25, 2002 using the PNDS developed by the Association of Operating Room Nurses and translated into Korean. Nurses working in 2 university hospitals in Gwang-ju and 2 general hospitals in Seoul. Data were analyzed using the SPSS program. RESULT: There were 15 of 127 nursing interventions which the operating room nurses indicated were important and which they performed at least once a day. CONCLUSION: The operating room nurses consider interventions to prevent physical injury and patient centered care to be very important, but the performance rate for patient centered care was low. It shows that there is a need in education courses for patient centered care to be more strongly emphasized.
