Assessing pressure injury knowledge among Jordanian and Turkish nursing students: A cross-cultural comparison.
Aim: Pressure injuries, a prevalent issue in healthcare settings, have profound physical and emotional implications for patients and healthcare providers. However, further evidence is needed regarding the level of nursing students' knowledge of pressure injuries in the Middle East, a region where healthcare is rapidly evolving. This study examines the knowledge levels regarding pressure injuries among nursing students in Jordan and Turkey.
Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study collected data from a randomly selected sample of 282 nursing students studying in two private and two Public Universities in Turkey and Jordan. Data was collected using a demographic survey and the Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Assessment Tool (PUKAT 2.0).
Results: The overall knowledge scores among students were alarmingly low, with significant differences between Jordanian and Turkish cohorts, with Turkish students scoring higher. Moreover, a significant difference was observed between students' knowledge levels from public and private universities in Jordan, but no difference was found between students of the two Turkish universities.
Conclusion: The knowledge gap among nursing students regarding pressure ulcers is a critical issue that needs immediate attention. These findings highlight the urgent need for improved educational strategies and standardized competencies in this aspect. This study strongly advocates for changing teaching strategies and incorporating evidence-based pressure injury prevention education into nursing curricula, interprofessional education initiatives, and continuous professional development for faculty. These measures can significantly enhance nursing students' knowledge and improve patient care.
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.
