본 연구는 난임 환자를 담당하는 간호사의 난임 간호 교육 요구도를 파악하기 위하여 시도된 연구이다. 본 연구의 대상자는 5개의 난임 전문 병원과 1개 보건소에서 난임 환자를 담당하는 간호사 194명이었다. 자료는 난임 질환과 증상에 대한 정보, 난임 대상자의 일상 생활에 대한 정보 제공, 난임 대상자의 지지와 상담 내용을 포함한 자가보고식 설문지를 통하여 수집되었다. 난임 질환과 증상에 대한 정보 요구도의 평균 점수는 3.52점이었고, 난임 대상자의 일상 생활에 대한 정보 제공 교육 요구도는 평균 3.36점이었으며 난임 대상자의 지지와 상담에 대한 교육 요구도는 평균 3.32점이었다. 각 하부 영역중에서는 '난임 치료 과정과 중재', '운동', '배우자와의 지지 체계 형성'이 난임 환자를 담당하는 간호사들의 교육 요구도 항목 중 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과를 통해서 난임 환자에게 효과적으로 교육을 하기 위해서 난임 환자를 담당하는 간호사는 난임 간호 교육에 대한 분명한 개념인식과 목적을 가지고 그들의 신체적, 심리적 요구를 충족시킬 수 있는 전략개발을 할 필요가 있다.
