Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the awareness and performance of safety in operating room nurses. There were 161 operating room nurses from eight general hospitals included for analysis in this study. The data were analyzed with t-test, one-way ANOVA, correlation analysis, and Scheffe's test. The results show that their perception of patient safety was 3.33 out of a total of 5 points. Moreover, the score of safety management activity for patients in the operating room was 4.28 out of 5 points. As the perception of patient safety in operating room nurses was significantly correlated with their safety management activities, nurses with higher awareness of patient safety were found to have higher degree of performance of safety management activities. In conclusion, to improve safety management activities, open discussion about patient safety should be encouraged and periodic education regarding patient safety should be implemented for operating room nurses to increase the perception of patient safety.

본 연구는 수술실 간호사의 환자안전인식과 안전관리활동을 분석한 후 상관관계를 파악한 연구이다. 목적은 수술환자의 안전관리활동 수행정도를 향상시키기 위한 교육 프로그램 개발과 안전한 수술실 환경 조성을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 함이다. 연구대상은 대구광역시와 경상북도에 소재한 8개 종합병원 수술실 간호사 161명이었고, 자료 분석은 SPSS 21.0 program을 이용하여 t-test, ANOVA, Correlation coefficient를 실시하였으며 사후분석으로 Scheffe's test를 실시하였다. 그 결과 수술실 간호사의 환자안전인식 점수는 5점 만점에 3.33점이었으며, 환자안전관리활동 점수는 5점 만점에 4.28점이었다. 대상자의 일반적 특성과 근무특성에 따른 환자안전인식을 분석한 결과 수술실 간호사의 근무시간에 따라서 환자안전인식이 차이가 있었으며 안전관리활동은 병상 수와 인증평가 준비 유무에 따라 차이가 있었다. 수술실 간호사의 환자안전에 대한 인식과 안전관리활동 간의 관계를 파악한 결과 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있어 환자안전인식이 높을수록 안전관리활동 정도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 안전관리활동을 향상시키기 위해서는 환자안전에 대한 인식을 증가시키는 것이 필요하며, 환자안전에 대한 인식을 증가시키기 위해서는 직원 간의 개방적인 논의와 환자안전에 대한 병원의 지원 및 주기적인 교육과 같은 중재가 필요하다.
