Objective To investigate the knowledge,attitude and practice of nurses from hospitals in Tibet Autonomous Region on the use of peripheral venous needle and analyze the influencing factors.Methods Utilizing a convenience sampling approach,we conducted a survey from November to December 2023 involving 1 319 nurses from 62 hospitals across 7 cities(regions)of Tibet Autonomous Region.Custom-made electronic questionnaires were utilized.Results A total of 1 320 questionnaires were collected,of which 1 319 were valid,with an effective response rate of 99.92%.The scores of nurses'knowledge,attitude and practice were 46.24±13.68,79.75±10.30,and 60.38±14.15,respectively.808(61.26%)nurses had received relevant training experience.The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of nurses'knowledge of peripheral venous indwelling needle included whether they had received training experience,ethnicity,education background,professional title,department and hospital region(P<0.05).Training experience,ethnicity,educational background,profession title and hospital region were the influence factors of nurses'attitude of venous indwelling needle(P<0.05).Whether they had received training,ethnicity,education background,department and hospital region were the influencing factors of nurses'practice of peripheral venous indwelling needle(P<0.05).Conclusion Nurses from hospitals in Tibet Autonomous Region have a good attitude towards using venous indwelling needle.However,the knowledge level is not ideal and the practice is still needed to be improved.Nursing managers should implement targeted training and enrich the training form and content,so as to meet the needs of nurses and to improve the quality of intravenous therapy in the Tibet Autonomous Region.
