Abstract
Objective: To evaluate clinical nurses' knowledge, attitude, and practice toward MDRPI prevention.
Background: Medical device-related pressure injury (MDRPI) is a significant concern in healthcare, serving as a critical indicator of patient safety and the quality of nursing care.
Methods: This systematic review was conducted according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A comprehensive search was performed on PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, and CINAHL, as well as Chinese databases including China Biology Medicine Disc (CBM), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, and VIP Database using the relevant keywords, from the earliest available records to June 27, 2024. The quality of the studies was appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) literature evaluation tool.
Findings: A total of 8847 clinical nurses from 18 studies were included. Of these, 6502 working in intensive care units. While nurses generally exhibited a positive attitude, their knowledge and practice were insufficient. Several factors positively influenced nurses' knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding MDRPI prevention, which include the level of education, work experience, previous training on MDRPU, caring for MDRPI patients, being an ICU specialist nurse, working in tertiary hospitals, and holding wound care certifications.
Conclusion: This review underscores the critical need to develop educational training programs to enhance nurses' competencies in MDRPI prevention. It also highlights the importance of addressing the challenges in implementing these strategies to ensure their effectiveness in clinical practice.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Tissue Viability is the official publication of the Tissue Viability Society and is a quarterly journal concerned with all aspects of the occurrence and treatment of wounds, ulcers and pressure sores including patient care, pain, nutrition, wound healing, research, prevention, mobility, social problems and management.
The Journal particularly encourages papers covering skin and skin wounds but will consider articles that discuss injury in any tissue. Articles that stress the multi-professional nature of tissue viability are especially welcome. We seek to encourage new authors as well as well-established contributors to the field - one aim of the journal is to enable all participants in tissue viability to share information with colleagues.
