摘要
前言:本研究调查了Obafemi Awolowo大学临床生对患者安全的知识、态度、知识来源以及知识与态度的关系。材料与方法:采用描述性横断面设计,采用方便抽样法从护理学、医学、牙科、医疗康复和药学系抽取281名学生。采用半结构化问卷收集数据,并使用Statistical Package for Social Sciences (version 25)对数据进行分析。数据采用描述性和推断性统计。结果:调查对象的平均年龄为21.56±3.20岁,年龄在20 ~ 24岁之间的占65.5%。68.7%的人知识水平较好,19.6%的人知识水平一般,11.7%的人知识水平较差。调查结果还显示,超过一半的受访者(69.4%)在我的部门学习过患者安全知识,而只有不到一半(46.3%)的受访者自己学习过患者安全知识。对患者安全持否定态度的占64.1%,持肯定态度的占35.9%。临床学生的知识与所学课程有显著相关(卡方值=26.90,p值>0.01)。结论:本研究确定临床学生对患者安全有较好的认识,但对患者安全的态度较差。因此,卫生专业人员的教育工作者需要将患者安全课程纳入年轻卫生专业人员的教育中。
Knowledge and Attitude toward Patients’ Safety among Clinical Students in a South Western University, Nigeria
Introduction: The study investigated the knowledge, attitude, sources of knowledge, as well as the relationship between knowledge and attitude towards patients' safety among clinical students in Obafemi Awolowo University. Materials and Methods: The study adopted a descriptive cross-sectional design and 281 students were selected from the Department of Nursing Science, Medicine, Dentistry, Medical Rehabilitation and Pharmacy using a convenient sampling technique. A semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect data and the data were analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (version 25). Data were presented with descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Findings from this study revealed that respondents' mean age was 21.56±3.20 with the majority of the respondents (65.5%) being within 20-24 years old. 68.7% of the respondents had good knowledge, 19.6% had fair knowledge and 11.7% had poor knowledge. The result also showed that more than half of the respondents ((69.4%) were taught about patient safety as part of my course of study in my department while less than half (46.3%) learnt about patient safety on their own. The result further showed that 64.1% had a negative attitude while 35.9% had a positive attitude towards patient safety. There was a significant relationship between clinical students’ knowledge and their course of study (Chi-square value =26.90, P-value >0.01). Conclusion: This study established that clinical students have a good knowledge of patient safety but with negative attitude towards patient safety. Hence, the health professionals’ educators need to integrate patient safety curriculum into the education of young health professionals.
