简要总结
Adverse drug reactions are an important public health consern that affects physician prescriptions and practice. The responsibilities of healthcare professionals in monitoring, prevention, treatment and reporting of drug hypersensitivity reactions and drug allergies are essential for patient safety. Providing drug safety must be one of the main goals to be achieved for every member of our society. In our study, we planned to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of healthcare workers in our country about drug hypersensitivity reactions in pediatric patients and to determine the risk factors that may affect them.
详细描述
This study was carried out in a capital-located university hospital with a capacity of 1150 beds. Healthcare workers who are authorized to intervene in children (0-18 age group) including medical doctors, nurses and dentists were enrolled to study. In the evaluation of the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of the participants about drug hypersensitivity reactions in children, a study questionnaire was developed by pediatric allergy and immunology specialists and pediatric nurses by considering the other studies on the same subject.

主要结局
we planned to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of healthcare workers in our country about drug hypersensitivity reactions in pediatric patients
时间窗: It is planned to fill the questionnaire in 2 hours.
1. The knowledge level domain, consisted of 24 questions including mechanism of drug hypersensitivity reactions, clinical findings, diagnosis and treatment. The answer format was 3 options (yes/no /don't know). A triple variable scale was used for knowledge level (0 to 2: 0, false; 1, true; 2, do not know). 2. The attitude domain consisted of 5 questions including the effect of DHRs on the patient's quality of life and advanced training and current diagnostic tests for the needs in this regard. A five-point Likert-type scale was used for the questions to determine the level of agreement or disagreement (1 to 5; 1 strongly disagree; 2, disagree; 3, uncertain; 4, agree; 5, strongly agree) 3. The practice domain consisted of 9 questions including taking history and practice in drug allergy and advanced training in DHR. A Likert-type scale was used to determine the level of practices (1 - 5: 1, never; 2, very rarely; 3, sometimes; 4, often; 5, always).
次要结局
