Abstract:
Objective To understand the nursing practice of prone position ventilation for patients with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)in intensive care unit(ICU)in Shandong province,so as to provide basis for standardizing the nursing practice process of prone position ventilation and carrying out training for hospitals.Methods A self-made questionnaire was used,and convenience sampling was adopted.From September 15th to November 5th,2023,ICU nurses were selected from various hospital levels in Shandong province to investigate the obstructive factors of prone ventilation implementation,the weak links in nursing practice and status,and the occurrence of complications.Results A total of 1 188 questionnaires were collected,of which 991 were valid.92.8%(920/991)of nurses had performed prone position ventilation.The biggest obstacle to the implementation of prone position ventilation was the complexity of patient treatments and multiple devices involved[74.6%(686/920)].Regarding the status of training,90.5%(897/991)of nurses had received training on prone position ventilation and 77.0%(763/991)of nurses felt that training was needed.As for pre-operation assessment,more than 80.0%of nurses evaluated patients'vital signs,airway and secretions and so on,among which the evaluation awareness of analgesia was the worst[81.6%(751/920)].As for the main points of implementation,only 14.0%(129/920)of nurses chose the opposite side of the most important pipeline as the turning direction;48.6%(447/920)of nurses chose the anti-Trendelenburg position;36.3%(334/920)of nurses chose to ventilate≥12 hours.Facial edema[81.7%(752/920)],skin pressure injury[78.9%(726/920)]and eye complication[75.8%(697/920)]were the top 3 most frequent complications.Conclusions ICU nurses'prone position ventilation practices were generally line with the nursing team standard for prone position of adult mechanically ventilated patients and the best evidence recommendation,and needs to be further standardized in aspects of turning direction,position management,ventilation duration,and enteral nutrition management.It is recommended that nursing managers at all levels of hospitals further improve the quality of nursing practice of prone position ventilation according to relevant evidence-based evidence and the actual situation of hospitals.
