Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the current status of knowledge and attitudes of oncology nursing staffs on pain management in cancer patients.
Methods:A total of 232 oncology nursing staffs from 7 Grade III-A Hospitals in 4 provinces and municipalities were surveyed using General Information Questionnaire and knowledge and attitudes survey regarding pain (KASRP) (2014) questionnaire (Chinese version).
Results:The results of this survey showed that the average score of knowledge and attitude about pain management of 232 oncology nursing staffs was (21.56±4.01) points, and the average correct rate was 52.59%. There were no significant differences in the scores of different education background, years of nursing work, years of cancer clinical nursing care, and the nature of the hospital they worked in(P>0.05). However, there was a difference in the score of nursing staffs with different professional titles (F=5.885, P=0.003). Besides that, difference also showed in scores of nursing staffs with different experiences in caring cancer pain patients (F=3.216, P=0.024).
Conclusion:The knowledge and attitude of pain management in oncology nursing staffs are in low level, the command of knowledge is not enough, meanwhile, the pain management ability is insufficient. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the training of pain related knowledge of nursing staffs and improve their pain management ability.
