Amaç: Bu çalışma, Yenidoğan Yoğun Bakım Ünitesi hemşirelerinin sağlıkla ilişkili enfeksiyonları azaltmaya yönelik önlemler konusundaki farkındalık ve bilgi düzeylerini değerlendirmek, gerekli eğitimleri vermek ve eğitim sonuçlarını değerlendirmek amacıyla yapıldı.
Yöntem: Yarı deneysel çalışma bir kadın doğum hastanesinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın örneklemini 108 hemşire/ebe oluşturmuştur. Enfeksiyon kontrol önlemlerine yönelik sunum eğitimi öncesi ve sonrasında; El Hijyeni İnanç Ölçeği puanı, El Hijyeni Uygulama Envanteri puanı ve enfeksiyon kontrolüne ilişkin bilgi düzeylerini ölçmeyi amaçlayan yirmi çoktan seçmeli soru yanıtı değerlendirilmiştir. Eğitimöncesi-sonrası karşılaştırmalarında Wilcoxon İşaretli Sıralama Testi kullanılmıştır. Sonuçlar %95 güven aralığında p<.05 anlamlılık düzeyinde değerlendirilmiştir. STROBE kontrol listesi kullanılmılştır.
Bulgular: Araştırma grubunun yaş ortalaması 29,95±7,83 olup %83,3'ü hemşire, %16,7'si ebedir. Eğitim sonrası El Hijyeni İnanç Ölçeği puanında 5,39±13,24 (p<0,001), El Hijyeni Uygulama Envanteri puanında 1,20±6,51 (p=0,014), enfeksiyon kontrol bilgi puanında ise 2,14±2,28 (p<0,001) artış saptanmıştır ve bu artışlar istatistiksel olarak anlamlıdır.
Sonuç: Bu çalışmada enfeksiyon kontrolü konusunda verilen eğitim, sağlık çalışanlarının el hijyeni inanç ve uygulamalarını olumlu yönde etkileyerek bilgi düzeylerini artırmıştır. Hemşirelerin enfeksiyon kontrolüne ilişkin bilgi, tutum ve davranışlarının geliştirilmesinde düzenli eğitimler önemlidir.

The Effect Of Infection Control Training Given to Neonatal Intensive Care Nurses On Nurses' Knowledge Level And Hand Hygiene Practices

Öz

Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the awareness and knowledge levels of Neonatal Intensive Care Unit nurses about measures to reduce health care related infections, to provide the necessary training and to evaluate the training results.
Methods: Quasi-experimental study was carried out in a gynecology hospital. The study sample consisted of 108 nurses/midwifes. Before and after presentation training on infection control measures; Hand Hygiene Belief Scale score, Hand Hygiene Practice Inventory score and twenty multiple-choice question answers aiming to measure knowledge levels of infection control were evaluated. Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test was used for before-after training comparisons. The results were evaluated at the level of significance p<.05 at the 95% confidence interval. The STROBE checklist was used.
Results: The mean age of the research group was 29.95±7.83, 83.3% of them were nurses and 16.7% of them were midwifes. There was an increase of 5.39±13.24 (p<.001) in the Hand Hygiene Belief Scale score, 1.20±6.51 (p=.014) in the Hand Hygiene Practice Inventory score, and 2.14±2.28 (p<.001) in the infection control knowledge score and these increases were statistically significant.
