Abstract

Background: As a non-invasive and economically feasible treatment method, prone position ventilation is a significant adjunctive therapy for patients with moderate and severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) as well as those with severe pneumonia.

Aims: This study aimed to develop a Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Questionnaire Related to Prone Positioning among Intensive Care Unit Nurses (PPICUNs-KAP) and assess the validation of this questionnaire in ICU nurses.

Methods: The draft questionnaire was formed by literature reviews and 2 rounds of expert consultations. This questionnaire was used to survey 267 ICU nurses from three tertiary hospitals in western Hunan Province, China in August 2024. Content validity and construct validity were evaluated by content validity index (CVI), exploratory factor analysis, respectively. Reliability was tested by internal consistency and test-retest reliability.

Results: After the exploratory factor analysis, three items(knowledge, attitude and practice) were excluded. Finally, the newly developed questionnaire included 42 items. It consisted of three dimensions: Knowledge (20 items); Attitude (7 items), and Practice (15 items). The Cronbach's α and test-retest reliability of the questionnaire were 0.970 and 0.962, respectively.

Conclusions: PPICUNs-KAP is valid and reliable, and it is recommended for use in clinical practice and research to assess knowledge, attitude and practice related to prone positioning among ICU nurses.

重症监护室护士俯卧位相关知识、态度和行为问卷的编制与验证。

背景：俯卧位通气作为一种无创且经济可行的治疗方法，是中重度急性呼吸窘迫综合征（ARDS）及重症肺炎患者的重要辅助治疗方法。目的：本研究旨在编制一份重症监护室护士俯卧位相关的知识、态度和行为问卷（ppicun - kap），并评估该问卷在ICU护士中的有效性。方法：通过文献查阅和2轮专家咨询形成问卷草案。本问卷于2024年8月对湘西地区三所三级医院的267名ICU护士进行调查。采用内容效度指数（CVI）和探索性因子分析分别评价内容效度和结构效度。信度通过内部一致性和重测信度进行检验。结果：经探索性因素分析，排除了知识、态度和行为三项。最终，新编制的问卷共包含42个项目。它包括三个维度：知识（20项）；态度（7项）和实践（15项）。问卷的Cronbach’s α信度为0.970，重测信度为0.962。结论：PPICUNs-KAP有效可靠，可用于临床和研究中评估ICU护士俯卧位相关知识、态度和行为。
