Abstract

Background

The clinical competence of perioperative nursing students is a crucial concern in both the healthcare system and universities, as it directly affects the quality of care services delivered to patients. The clinical educational environment for perioperative nursing students differs from that of other hospital departments and may impact their clinical competence. This study aimed to determine the correlation between clinical competence and the clinical educational environment in students studying perioperative nursing.

Methods

This cross-sectional study was conducted on 250 perioperative nursing room students in Iran. The data collection instruments utilized in this study consisted of a demographic information questionnaire, the Perceived Perioperative Competence Scale-Revised (PPCS-R), and the Iranian Measure of Operating Theatre Educational Climate (IMOTEC). The data that were collected were analyzed using both descriptive and analytical tests, with SPSS V.20.

Results

The mean score for clinical competence was 119.26 ± 15.77, while the mean score for the clinical educational environment was 100.82 ± 14.79. A significant association was seen between all aspects of clinical competence and all aspects of the clinical educational environment. The clinical educational environment setting accounts for 13% of the variation in clinical competence among perioperative nursing students.

Conclusion

Given the significant correlation that has been discovered and the significance of the clinical competence of perioperative nursing students, it is imperative for the relevant authorities to prioritize enhancing the conditions of the clinical educational environment and resolving any associated issues.

围手术期护生临床能力与临床教育环境的相关性调查

围手术期护理专业学生的临床能力是医疗保健系统和大学的一个关键问题，因为它直接影响到向患者提供的护理服务的质量。围手术期护理专业学生的临床教育环境不同于其他医院科室，可能会影响其临床能力。本研究旨在探讨围手术期护理专业学生临床能力与临床教育环境的关系。方法对伊朗250名围手术期护理室学生进行横断面研究。本研究中使用的数据收集工具包括人口统计信息问卷、感知围手术期能力量表-修订版（PPCS-R）和伊朗手术室教育氛围测量（IMOTEC）。使用SPSS V.20对收集的数据进行描述性和分析性测试。结果临床能力得分平均为119.26±15.77分，临床教育环境得分平均为100.82±14.79分。临床能力的各个方面与临床教育环境的各个方面之间存在着显著的关联。临床教育环境的设置占围手术期护生临床能力变化的13%。结论围手术期护生临床能力与临床能力之间存在显著的相关性，应优先改善围手术期护生临床教育环境，解决相关问题。

期刊介绍： The objective of this new online journal is to serve as a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed source of information related to the administrative, economic, operational, safety, and quality aspects of the ambulatory and in-patient operating room and interventional procedural processes. The journal will provide high-quality information and research findings on operational and system-based approaches to ensure safe, coordinated, and high-value periprocedural care. With the current focus on value in health care it is essential that there is a venue for researchers to publish articles on quality improvement process initiatives, process flow modeling, information management, efficient design, cost improvement, use of novel technologies, and management.
