- Abstract
Objective This study, it was aimed to measure the knowledge level of nurses working in various branches in a research and practice hospital about thoracic surgery practices and to determine the factors affecting them. Material and Method Nurses working actively in the hospital where the research was conducted were invited. It was aimed to reach the entire universe (N:480). A survey was conducted on 175 (36%) nurses who volunteered. Data were collected through a professional online survey evaluation and voting platform. Parameters found to be significant in univariate analysis were included in the linear regression model; influencing variables were evaluated. Results The mean score of the knowledge level of thoracic surgery practices of the participants was determined as 69.8±12.6. Those over 30 years of age had a higher score than those aged 30 years and younger (p<0.001). The scores of those with postgraduate/ graduate degrees were higher than those with high school/associate degree graduates (p<0.001). The scores of those who worked in the thoracic surgery clinic were higher than those who did not work (p<0.001). The scores of those who wanted to work or continue working in the thoracic surgery clinic were higher than those who did not (p<0.001). Variables that were found to be significant in the univariate analysis (age, education, working status in the thoracic surgery clinic, willingness to work in the thoracic surgery clinic/willingness to continue working in the thoracic surgery clinic) were included in the linear regression model, and the variables affecting the thoracic surgery practice knowledge level score were evaluated. It was determined that being over 30 years old (p<0.001) and having worked in a thoracic surgery clinic (p<0.001) might be protective factors in terms of knowledge level score. Conclusion It was determined that the knowledge level of nurses on thoracic surgery practices was not at the desired level. In order to update the information about thoracic surgery practices, in-house trainings for nurses should be given regularly with up-to-date information.
