Abstract:
Objective:To establish the scoring standard of nasal swab collection technique for internal contamination, and to test its clinical effect, so as to standardize the nasal swab collection process and improve the medical rescue ability against nuclear radiation.Methods:The scoring standard of nasal swab collection technique for internal contamination was developed on the basis of literature research, expert consultation and pre-test. It was applied for training and assessment of 55 nurses, and the difference in scores before and after training was analyzed to test the application effect.Results:The effective response rate of expert inquiry questionnaire was 93.3%, the expert familiarity 0.914, the judgment basis 0.921, and the expert authority coefficient 0.917. Finally, the technical scoring standard for nasal swab collection for internal contamination was developed through three stages of preparation, sampling and arrangement. Through practical application, the score after training (94.98±2.84) was significantly better than that before training (81.37±10.45), with statistically significant difference ( t=8.63, P<0.05). Conclusions:The scoring standard of nasal swab collection technique for internal contamination, developed in this study, is reliable, innovative and practical. It is suitable for clinical practice and training and helpful to standardize the collection process and improve the rescue ability in a nuclear emergency.
