Abstract
The purpose of this study is based on the convergence establishment of a coronavirus infection management system that can occur during clinical trials by grasping the knowledge of corona, infection possibility, infection prevention possibility, and implementation level of infection prevention behavior of radiologists working at K University Hospital. It is in providing data. This study was a descriptive research study, and data were collected from 50 radiologists working at K University Hospital from March 25 to June 30, 2020. The characteristics of the subjects and their knowledge of the COVID-19, the possibility of infection, the possibility of infection prevention, and the level of implementation of infection prevention actions were surveyed, and the collected data were analyzed with SPSS 25.0. The frequency and percentage were calculated for the general characteristics and infection-related characteristics of the subjects. The correlation between variables was analyzed by Pearson's correlation coefficient, and the factors influencing the progression of infection prevention behavior were analyzed by multiple regression analysis. Factors influencing COVID-19 infection prevention behavior shown in this study were 1.7 points for infection prevention behavior when corona knowledge increased by 1 point, and infection prevention activity increased by 11.3 points when the level of transmission pathway recognition rose 1 point. When the figure rose by 1 point, the infection prevention behavior increased by 4.2 points. When looking at the standard regression coefficient, preventive behavior is performed. Among knowledge, transmission path perception, and anxiety, the factor that has the greatest influence was the perception of the transmission path of COVID-19. As factors influencing the implementation of infection prevention actions, knowledge of COVID-19, awareness of transmission paths, and anxiety appear to be the potential of infection prevention, so in the event of a corona outbreak, information on infectious diseases and education on the possibility of infection prevention should be provided to promote the implementation of preventive action.
