Survey on the current knowledge,beliefs,and behaviors of neurosurgical nurses on intracranial pressure monitoring and graded care for patients with traumatic brain injury
Objective This study aims to investigate the current status of neurosurgical nurses'knowledge,beliefs,and be-haviors regarding intracranial hypertension(ICP)monitoring and graded care for patients with traumatic brain injury in tertiary or high-er-level general hospitals.Methods A convenience sampling method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey on 304 neurosurgi-cal nurses from 12 tertiary and above tertiary general hospitals in Jiangsu Province in February 2023.The survey consisted of a self-de-signed general information form,and a questionnaire of intracranial hypertension monitoring and graded nursing care knowledge and beliefs.The analysis of influencing factors was conducted.The content validity of the survey was 0.855.Results A total of 294 ques-tionnaires were returned.The scores for knowledge,beliefs,and behaviors were(15.05±4.27),(23.56±5.02),and(30.91±6.75),re-spectively,with a total score of(69.52±12.87).Age,title,years of experience,different work units,and different categories of nurses were the main factors influencing the levels of knowledge,beliefs,and behaviors of neurosurgical nurses regarding ICP monitoring and graded care(P<0.05).Conclusion Nursing leaders should pay due attention to the clinical training needs of neurosurgical nurses and develop training in the basics of intracranial pressure monitoring and graded care as well as clinical practice skills.Hospitals should vigorously pursue specialty training for neurosurgical nurses to im-prove their knowledge and skills.
