Determination of Risk of Falling in Pediatric Patients and Views of Nurses

Abstract

Objective: This research was conducted to evaluate the risk of falls in pediatric patients and to determine the opinions of nurses on this issue.
Materials and Methods: The population of the descriptive-cross-sectional study consisted of children aged between 0-18 years (N: 161) hospitalized in the services of hospitals in Kars province as well as nurses (N: 60) working in these services. The data were collected by using “Pediatric Fall Risk Assessment”, “Information Form for Nurses” and “BUCH II Fall Risk Scale”. The data of the study was analysed via SPSS 20 program.
Results: 41.6% of the children included in the study had a risk of falling according to the BUCH II score and the mean score of risk of falling was 5.06 ± 1.04. Those who were boys, 1-6 age group and had no orientation problems, staying with their parents, non-sedated and not restricted by mobility are more likely to have a risk of falling. 58.3% of the nurses have stated that they do not consider that falls in children are professional mistake however 90% of them thought that nurses had responsibility for the prevention of falls in children. 96.7% of nurses, stated that each child should be assessed in terms of risk of falling, 85% assessed each child in their service in terms of risk of falling and 78.3% reported that they took adequate measures against falling in the service.
Conclusion: A significant proportion of the pediatric patients were at risk for falls. The fall risk levels of all hospitalized children can be determined using appropriate assessment tools and nurses' awareness about the issue can be increased with trainings to be held within the scope of fall prevention programs.
