Clinical Trial Summary

This research aims to determine the knowledge levels and practices of intensive care nurses regarding the prevention of pressure sores. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the level of knowledge of intensive care nurses regarding the prevention of pressure sores? 2. What is the impact of sociodemographic characteristics of intensive care nurses on their knowledge level regarding the prevention of pressure sores? 3. What are the experiences of intensive care nurses regarding their practices for the prevention of pressure sores? In this research, a survey and interview technique will be applied to determine the knowledge levels and experiences of nurses working in adult intensive care units regarding the prevention of pressure sores and their practices.


Description:

This study is a mixed method research conducted to determine the knowledge levels and experiences of nurses working in adult intensive care units regarding the prevention of pressure sores. In accordance with the purpose of the study, parallel data type in convergent parallel mixed design will be used as the research design. The quantitative phase will be conducted as a descriptive survey, and the qualitative phase will be conducted as a descriptive case study design. In this mixed design, equal priority, parallel timing and combining results during interpretation are planned. The research will be conducted with nurses working in adult intensive care units of a public hospital located in a city center. 'Sociodemographic Form', 'Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Level Assessment Tool 2.0- Updated Version', 'Semi-Structured Interview Form' will be used as data collection tools. Within the scope of our research questions, quantitative and qualitative data will be analyzed independently of each other. In the discussion section, the integration of quantitative and qualitative evidence will be interpreted by making analytical generalization by combining data without transformation.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Level of Intensive Care Nurses Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Level Assessment Tool 2.0-Updated Version (PUKAT 2.0): The Turkish adaptation of the PUKAT 2.0 measurement tool was made by Dalli et al. (2021). PUKAT 2.0 is a measurement/test tool scored as multiple choice true-false. It consists of a total of 25 questions. It is scored according to the number of correct answers given by the individual. The Cronbach Alpha value of the internal consistency reliability of the measurement tool was found to be 0.72. All results will be coded as binary variables: correct (1) and incorrect (0). If the answer is not known, more than one answer or no answer is selected, the result will be coded as incorrect. The total score for each participant will be calculated as the sum of the correct answers. The minimum score to be obtained from the scale is 0 and the maximum score is 25. As the scores increase, the level of knowledge increases. four months
Primary Intensive Care Nurses' experiences The qualitative data obtained from the research will be evaluated with inductive content analysis. In order to increase the validity of the data, two researchers will examine the transcripts separately and comprehensive readings will be made. Codes will be created and compared by interpreting them in terms of differences and similarities, categories and sub-themes will be obtained. Main themes and sub-themes will be determined and research objectives will be tried to be given within the framework of the pattern between the interviews. four months
