Abstract

This study examined the level of knowledge, perception, and attitude related to personal protective equipment (PPE) of acute respiratory infection, and their relationship on nursing students. The participants were 200 nursing students of the 3rd and 4th grade in hospital practice. Data were collected from September 1 to October 15, 2018. The knowledge, perception, and attitude related to PPE were measured by structured questionnaires. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, independent t-test, and Pearson correlation. From the results, knowledge score related to PPE was 17.83 out of 20 points, and perception score related to PPE was 3.68 out of 5 points, and attitude score related to PPE was 4.14 out of 5 points. Therefore, knowledge and attitude level were higher than average. Perception level was moderate. And attitude related to PPE was positively correlated with knowledge and perception. These study findings can be used as basic data for developing an effective infection control educational program to enhance the correct knowledge, perception, and positive attitude related to use of PPE for nursing students. Also, it will be necessary to provide nursing students with the equipment and related resources to master the use of PPE.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 급성 호흡기 감염병을 중심으로 한 개인 보호구 관련 지식과 인식 및 태도 정도와 이들과의 관계를 규명하고자 하는 연구이다. 참여자는 임상 실습 중인 간호대학생 3학년, 4학년 학생 총 200명이었다. 자료는 2018년 9월 1일부터 10월 15일까지이고, 개인 보호구 관련 지식과 인식 및 태도는 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 수집되었다. 자료 분석은 t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson 상관관계를 이용하였다. 연구 결과, 대상자의 개인 보호구 관련 개인 보호구 관련 지식 점수는 20점 만점에 17.83점, 인식 점수는 5점 만점에 3.68점, 태도 점수는 5점 만점에 4.14점이었다. 따라서 지식과 태도 수준은 높았고 인식은 보통 수준이었다. 간호대학생의 개인 보호구 관련 태도는 지식 및 인식과 유의한 정적 상관관계가 있어 개인 보호구 관련 태도는 지식 및 인식이 높을수록 높은 수준으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 간호 대학생을 위한 개인보호구 사용을 포함한 효과적인 감염관리교육프로그램 개발을 위한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있다. 또한 간호대학생에게 개인 보호구 이용을 숙달시키기 위해 장비 및 관련 자원을 제공 할 필요가 있을 것이다.
