Abstract

Amaç: Araştırma bir üniversite hastanesinde çalışan hemşirelerin ventrogluteal bölgeye intramüsküler enjeksiyon kullanımına ilişkin görüşlerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipte yapılan çalışmanın örneklemini çalışmaya katılmaya gönüllü 131 hemşire oluşturdu. Veri toplama aracı olarak, literatür doğrultusunda araştırmacı tarafından hazırlanan “Kişisel Bilgi Formu”, "Ventrogluteal Bölgeye İntramüsküler Enjeksiyona Yönelik Bilgi, Etkileyici Faktörler Formu” ve “Hemşirelerin Ventrogluteal Alana Enjeksiyon Uygulamaya İlişkin Görüşlerinin Belirlenmesi” formları kullanıldı. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde SPSS programında ki kare (χ2) çapraz tabloları ve fisher exact test istatistiği kullanıldı.
Bulgular: Hemşirelerin ventrogluteal bölgeye intramüsküler enjeksiyon uygulamasına ilişkin görüşleri incelendiğinde; katılımcıların %58,8'i bölgeyi belirlemeyi kolaylaştırdığını, %67,1'i ventrogluteal bölgenin dorsogluteal bölgeden daha güvenli olduğunu düşündüğünü, %49,6'sı ventrogluteal bölgeye enjeksiyon yaparken kendinden emin hissettiğini, %34,3'ü ventrogluteal bölgeye ilaç uygulamaktan korktuğunu, %33.6'sı ventrogluteal bölgeye ilaç uygulamasını çocuklar için güvenli bulmadığını belirtirken, araştırmaya katılanların %54.2'si ventrogluteal bölgeye yapılan enjeksiyonda hastanın daha fazla ağrı yaşayacağını düşündüğünü bildirdi.
Sonuç: Araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlar doğrultusunda, hemşirelerin hizmet vermeye başladığı kurum tarafından hizmet içi eğitimlerin tekrarlanması, ventro gluteal bölgeye enjeksiyon uygulama nedenleri, kanıtları ile açıklanarak farkındalıklarını arttırmaları önerildi.

DETERMINATION OF OPINIONS OF NURSES WORKING IN A UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL ABOUT INTRAMUSCULAR INJECTION INTO THE VENTROGLUTEAL SITE

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to determine the opinions of nurses working in a university hospital on the injection to intramuscular infection.
Method: This study, which was conducted in descriptive, was composed of 131 voluntary nurses. The forms of “Personal Information Form” and “The Determination of Nurses”, “Opinions on the Injection to Intramuscular Site”, which were prepared by the researcher based on the literature, were used as data collection tools. Percentage calculations, average measures (minimum, maximum) and chi square (χ2) cross tables statistics were used in the evaluation of the data.
Results: When the nurses' opinions on the intramuscular injection administration to the ventrogluteal sites were examined; 58.8% of the participants made it easier to determine the region, 67.1% of them thought the ventrogluteal site was safer than the dorsogluteal site, 49.6% of them felt confident while administering the injection to the ventrogluteal site, 34.3% were afraid to administer drugs to the ventrogluteal site and 33.6 % reported that they did not find the drug administration to the ventrogluteal site safe for children, 54.2% of the participants in the study thought the patient would experience more pain in the injection of the ventrogluteal site.
Conclusion: In the light of the findings obtained within this study, it is suggested that the in-service trainings provided by the institutions the nurses worked in should be repeated and the nurses’ awareness should be increased by explaining them the reasons for the injections on ventrogluteal site with proofs.
