Abstract

Background: management of critically ill patient in emergency is a critical health status which requires standardized care policies, as well as it needs qualified and skilled health providers to obtain good outcome of management. Objectives: To evaluate nurses’ cognitive skill regarding management of critically ill patient in the emergency department. Methods: This was a descriptive cross sectional hospital-based study conducted at emergency department in Omdurman military hospital during the period between February 11 to March 4. 2022. Sixty nurses were participated in the study taken as total coverage. Results: Sixty five percent of participants were females and most of them had 1-5 years’ experience. Their average age was 32 years old. Ninety two percent of them holding bachelor degree. The overall participant’s knowledge for all the variables analyzed was 18 participants (30%) had poor knowledge, (18.3%) scored for Fair knowledge and 28 Nurses (46.6%) scored for good knowledge. Only 14 nurses (23.3%) attain very good results for the overall aspects of the knowledge variable. Also the participants were assessed for their attitude regarding management of critically ill patient in emergency department. Total mean of the attitude showed strongly disagree by (14.4), disagree (8.0), Neutral Agree (5.8), agree (16) and strongly agree (13.8). There was a significant correlation between participants’ level of knowledge and educational level, and between the knowledge and the training courses (P. value ≤ 0.01) respectively. Conclusion: According to the findings of the current study It was concluded that the study participants showed approximately forty six percent of them attained good knowledge, 23% attained very good knowledge and thirty percent of them gained poor Knowledge.

急诊科护士对危重病人管理临床知识和态度的评价

背景:危重病人急诊管理是一项重要的健康状况，需要规范的护理政策，也需要合格、熟练的医护人员才能获得良好的管理效果。目的:评价急诊科护士对危重病人管理的认知能力。方法:采用描述性横断面医院研究方法，于2月11日至3月4日在恩图曼军队医院急诊科进行。2022. 共60名护士参加了本次研究。结果:65%的参与者为女性，大多数有1-5年的工作经验。他们的平均年龄为32岁。92%的人拥有学士学位。对所有变量进行分析的总体参与者的知识为:知识差18名(30%)，知识一般(18.3%)，知识良好28名(46.6%)。只有14名护士(23.3%)在知识变量的整体方面取得了很好的结果。同时评估了参与者对急诊科危重病人管理的态度。态度的总平均值为“非常不同意”(14.4)、“不同意”(8.0)、“一般同意”(5.8)、“同意”(16)、“非常同意”(13.8)。被试的知识水平与受教育程度、知识水平与培训课程之间存在显著相关(p值≤0.01)。结论:根据目前的研究结果，研究参与者表明，大约46%的人获得了良好的知识，23%的人获得了非常好的知识，30%的人获得了较差的知识。护理领域的低态度需要合格的、训练有素的护士。向参与者提供的培训课程的低结果影响了向患者提供的护理质量。
