This study was performed to investigate a hospital nurses' knowledge and attitude about cancer pain management and to make use of base material for education. The research design was descriptive survey study, and the data were collected from 303 nurses who were working at a university hospital. A instrument study was the inventory consisting 107 questionnaires for cancer pain management. The data were analysed by SPSS WIN 18.0. The study showed that the percentage of correct answers for general knowledge about pain was 79.6%, for knowledge about cancer pain was 82.2%, for knowledge about analgesics use was 55.6%, for attitude about pain management was 65.2%, and the percentage of correct answers for each item was 70.7%. The knowledge about analgesics use was significant difference in age, education level, position, years of nursing practice, present place of working, years of present working place, pain education program experience, the attitude about pain management was significant difference in gender, education level and present place of working. Consequently it needs the persistent educational programs development and the clinical application to improve of nurses` knowledge and attitude about cancer pain management.

본 연구는 일 대학병원 간호사 303명을 대상으로 암성통증관리에 대한 지식과 태도를 알아보고 통증 관리 교육을 위한 기초자료로 활용하기 위한 조사연구로 진행되었다. 연구 도구는 일반적 특성과 통증의 지식과 태도와 관련한 107문항으로 구성되었고 수집된 자료는 SPSS WIN 18.0을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 통증에 대한 일반적 지식의 정답률은 79.6%, 암성 통증 지식 점수의 정답률은 82.2%로 나타났고, 진통제 사용에 대한 지식의 정답률은 55.6%, 통증관리에 대한 태도의 정답률은 65.2%, 통증관리에 대한 지식과 태도의 전체 정답률은 70.7%로 나타났다. 일반적 특성에 따른 진통제 사용에 대한 지식은 연령, 교육정도, 직위, 총 근무경력, 현 근무지, 현 근무처 경력, 통증교육 경험에서 유의한 차이가 있었고 통증관리에 대한 태도는 성별, 교육정도, 현 근무지에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 결론적으로 환자의 통증을 관리해야 하는 간호사의 통증과 관련한 항목별 지식과 태도의 평균점수가 높지 않음을 알 수 있고 대부분 통증 중재 방법으로는 진통제 투여에 의존하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 간호사의 암성통증관리에 대한 지식과 태도를 향상시키기 위해 실무에 적용 가능한 교육 프로그램의 개발이 필요하고 개발된 교육 프로그램을 적용하여 임상간호사의 통증관리에 대한 지식과 태도의 변화를 반복 연구할 필요가 있다.
