  • A 15-minute questionnaire on breast-feeding was administered to the obstetric and pediatric residents and nurses in metropolitan academic training programs in Korea to assess their attitudes to and knowledge about breast-feeding and their confidence in managing breast-feeding problems. The questionnaires were self-administered and confidential and the participants was 279. Overall, the study participants indicated a supportive attitude toward breast-feeding. Nurses had a highest supportive attitude than obstetric and pediatric residents. Their self-confidence in this area was inappropriately high with 48% of total, 49% of obstetric, 42% of pediatric and 58% of nurses describing themselves as "confident" or "very confident" to manage common breast-feeding problems to compare their knowledge level answering only 46% of the questions correctly. However, nurses who did have continuing education about breast-feeding had significantly high in knowledge level. These health care professionals have extremely limited knowledge of breast-feeding management compared to their reported confidence. To be truly supportive of breast-feeding, health care professionals should receive didactic and clinical training to breast-feeding management.

  • 목적: 본 연구는 아동병동 간호사들의 아동 호스피스 완화의료에 대한 인식과 지식을 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 방법: 일개 대학병원의 어린이병원 내과계 병동과 중환자실에서 근무하는 간호사를 대상으로 인식 관련 23문항, 지식 관련 20문항으로 구성된 설문조사를 시행하고 총 132명의 자료를 분석하였다. 결과: 대상자의 아동 호스피스 완화의료에 대한 인식의 하위영역 중 '아동 호스피스 완화의료의 어려움'에 대한 인식이 가장 높았으며 특히 의사소통과 관련된 어려움을 크게 인식하고 있었다. 대상자의 일반적 특성이 아닌 아동 호스피스 완화의료 경험에 따라 인식의 차이를 보였다. 아동 호스피스 완화의료의 지식은 20점 만점에 $8.83{\pm}2.64$점으로 '통증과 증상관리', '철학과 원칙', '돌봄의 정신 사회적 측면'의 순으로 점수가 낮아졌다. 현재 근무지가 병동인 경우가 중환자실에 근무하는 경우보다 지식이 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 아동 호스피스 완화의료와 관련된 경험에 따른 지식의 차이는 보이지 않았다. 결론: 아동병동 간호사의 아동 호스피스 완화의료의 인식과 지식의 향상을 위해 간호사들이 어려움을 느끼는 부분과 부족한 지식을 보완할 수 있는 교육프로그램의 개발하여 아동병동 간호사들에게 지속적으로 제공하는 것이 필요하다.

  • 본 연구는 간호대학생을 대상으로 강의자동녹화시스템을 통해 발생한 녹화강의콘텐츠를 학습관리시스템에 연계하여 반복학습하도록 제시한 수업설계를 적용한 후 아동간호학 교과목의 학습성과에 미치는 효과를 확인하기 위한 것이다. 본 연구는 비동등성 대조군 전후 유사실험 연구로 D광역시 일 대학 간호대학생을 대상으로 하였으며, 실험군과 대조군 각각 52명으로 총 104명이었다. 자료는 SPSS 22.0을 이용하여 ${\chi}^2$ test와 independent t-test로 분석하였다. 강의 자동녹화시스템을 사용한 수업설계를 적용받은 실험군의 제1학습성과(다양한 교양지식과 전공지식에 근거한 간호술을 통합적으로 실무에 적용한다)의 효과는 확인되지 않았으나, 제5학습성과(비판적 사고에 근거한 간호과정을 적용하고 임상적 추론을 실행한다)의 효과는 대조군에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 높았다. 본 연구는 핵심역량을 갖춘 간호 인재를 양성을 위한 학습성과 기반 교육과정을 운영하고 있는 현 시점에서 간호대학생의 학습성과를 향상시키기 위한 수업설계방안을 발전시키기 위한 자료를 제시하였다는데 의의가 있다.

  • To investigate the prevalence and etiologic factors of nursing caries, oral examination was performed on 1,100 kindergarten children from 6 Seoul areas and 3 Hongchun areas. Parents were asked to fill out questionnaires. The following results were obtained: 1. The prevalence of nursing caries among 1,100 in the sample group(age 30-75 months) was 14.8%. 2. Fathers' education level(p<0.05), mothers' education level(p<0.01) and monthly income was higher in caries-free group children. 3. When the dietary tendencies of nursing caries group and caries-free group were compared, no significant differences in the length and method of feeding were found. However, nursing caries group showed higher frequency of bedtime nursing habit(p<0.01), daytime use of bottle as a comforter(p<0.01) and other beverage feeding in addition to milk(p<0.01). 4. When the parents' awareness of caries prevention was compared, caries-free group per formed more frequent tooth cleansing(p<0.05) and periodic dental examination(p<0.01).5. Dental caries experience of mothers was significantly lower in the caries free group(p<0.05). From the above results, it can be concluded that deleterious nursing habit had great effect on developing nursing caries and the incidence of nursing caries was lower among children with parents of higher socioeconomic status.

  • Purpose: Epilepsy is the most common neurological disorder in childhood. Hospital nurses, who are the first to recognize seizures in epilepsy patients in the ward environment, possess expertise related to epilepsy and play a central role in epilepsy management. The purpose of this study was to develop an algorithm-based education program and to improve nurses' knowledge and self-efficacy related to providing nursing care to children with epilepsy. Methods: The education program consisted of lectures on the definition, cause, classification, diagnosis, treatment, and nursing of epilepsy based on a booklet, as well as practice using an algorithm for nursing interventions when a child experiences a seizure. Twenty-seven nurses working at pediatric neurological wards and a pediatric emergency room participated in the education program. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the paired t-test. Results: Nurses' knowledge and self-efficacy showed a statistically significant improvement after participation in the education program on nursing care for children with epilepsy. Conclusion: The application of this education program for hospital setting is expected to improve nurses' capability to care for children with epilepsy, thereby contributing to a higher quality of nursing.

Conversely, ineffective communication may cause depression, increased anxiety, hopelessness and decreased of quality life for patients, families and also nurses. Objective: This study aimed to explore communication difficulties of pediatric hematology/oncology nurses with patients and their families, as well as their suggestions about communication difficulties. Materials and Methods: It was conducted in a pediatric hematology/oncology hospital in Ankara, Turkey. Qualitative data were collected by focus groups, with 21 pediatric hematology/oncology nursing staff from three groups. Content analysis was used for data analysis. Results: Findings were grouped in three main categories. The first category concerned communication difficulties, assessing problems in responding to questions, ineffective communication and conflicts with the patient's families. The second was about the effects of communication difficulties on nurses and the last main category involved suggestions for empowering nurses with communication difficulties, the theme being related to institutional issues. Conclusions: Nurses experience communication difficulties with children and their families during long hospital stays. Communication difficulties particularly increase during crisis periods, like at the time of first diagnosis, relapse, the terminal stage or on days with special meaning such as holidays. The results obtained indicate that pediatric nurses and the child/family need to be supported, especially during crisis periods. Feeling of empowerment in communication will improve the quality of care by reducing the feelings of exhaustion and incompetence in nurses.
