简要总结
This study will explore nurses' pediatric postoperative pain management knowledge and clinical practices. The aim is to evaluate if a tailored educational intervention will improve nurses' knowledge and attitudes of pain management and pain management practices. The intervention offered is education and skills training. The study has a pre-post design and a comparison group. Data is collected before the intervention is started (baseline T1) and again one month (T2) and six months (T3) after the intervention. Nurses working in six postoperative units are participating. The units are the largest pediatric postoperative units of each of the six university hospitals covering all health regions in Norway. Three different approaches will be used to collect data (survey with questionnaire, observations of clinical practice, and interviews with children).
详细描述
The study will explore the nurses' pediatric postoperative pain management knowledge and clinical practice, and evaluate if a tailored educational intervention will improve postoperative pain management practice. This will be achieved by first exploring the pediatric postoperative pain management practice using different approaches (study 1). Then, an intervention will be developed based on the results from the first study and available research in the area (study 2). Finally, the investigators will investigate if the tailored interventions with nurses at postoperative units improve the nurses' knowledge of pediatric pain management (study 3).
Studies Activity:
Study 1: Explore nurses' pediatric postoperative pain practices.
Data collection (baseline T1):
- Knowledge and attitudes (questionnaire PNKAS-N)
