Abstract:
Objective To investigate noise management-associated behavioural intentions of ICU nurses and identify the factors that influence the intentions under the framework of the Theory of Planned Behaviour so as to provide references for proposing a noise management programme for ICU. Methods Objective sampling method was used to conduct semi-structured interviews with 17 ICU nurses in our hospital. The interview data were analysed with the method of Colaizzi seven-step analysis to extract themes. Results A total of 3 themes and 9 sub-themes were extracted. The themes together with the sub-themes included:the different behaviours and attitudes of ICU nurses (actively controlling noise sources,negatively responding to noise management);being influenced by multifaceted subjective norms (engaging in active management after noise event,responding to patient requests and team reminders and supervision);and limited perceptual behavioural control (require improvement in noise management,lack of knowledge in noise management,complex work scenarios lead to the neglect of noise management,and lack of training in noise management). Conclusion It is found that while ICU nurses generally hold a positive attitude towards noise management,there are still many challenges in the implementation process. ICU nursing staff are recommended to improve the awareness of the importance of noise management,establish the noise management system,conduct relevant training,and to develop a systematic,comprehensive and sustainable noise management strategy,therefore to reduce ICU noise levels and improve the hospital experience of the patients.
