Abstract

This study is to identify the awareness and performance of hand washing according to the presence of clinical practice experience of paramedic students and provide basic data of education on hand washing that can be practically applied. 335 students in paramedicine department in P city and J city were the study subjects and we distributed URL to those who agreed to participate in the study to carry out untact survey using questionnaire. The study results were analyzed by using SPSS/WIN 23.0. The results showed that the average number of hand washing per day was 5~8 times (142 students, 42.4%) and average time for washing hands was 24.34 seconds. We could find statistically significant differences in 'hand washing to wrist' and 'it is necessary to completely dry after hand washing' in terms of difference on awareness of hand washing according to the clinical experiences (p<0.05). In terms of differences in hand washing performance according to clinical practice experience, statistically significant difference was found in 'before touching equipment for clinical practice' and 'before taking foods such as drinks during practice' (p<0.05). The correlation between awareness and performance of hand washing showed that if awareness of hand washing is high, its performance is increased, too (p=0.001). We try to provide basic data of education on hand washing that can improve awareness and performance on hand washing based on the results of this study.

본 연구는 응급구조(학)과 학생들의 임상 실습 경험 여부에 따른 손 씻기에 대한 인식도와 실천도를 파악하고, 현실적으로 적용 가능한 손 씻기 교육의 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 연구의 대상자는 P 시, J 시의 응급구조(학)과 학생 335명을 대상으로 하였으며, 연구에 동의한 대상자에게 URL을 배포하여 설문지 폼을 이용한 비대면 설문조사를 이용하였다. 연구 결과는 SPSS/WIN 23.0을 사용하여 분석하였다. 대상자의 1일 평균 손 씻기 횟수는 5~8회 142명(42.4%)이 있었으며, 평균 손 씻기 시간은 24.34초이다. 임상경험에 따른 손 씻기 인식도의 차이에서는 '손목까지 손 씻기'와 '손 씻기 후 완전히 물기를 건조가 필요하다'에서 통계학적 유의미한 차이를 확인할 수 있었다(p<0.05). 임상 실습 경험에 따른 손 씻기 실천도의 차이에서는 '임상실습 장비를 만지기 전'과 '실습 중 음료와 같은 음식물을 섭취하기 전'에서 통계학적 유의미한 차이를 확인할 수 있었다(p<0.05). 손 씻기의 인식도와 실천도의 상관관계에서는 손 씻기의 인식도가 높을수록 실천도가 높아지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다(p=0.001). 본 연구 결과를 토대로 손 씻기에 대한 인식도 및 실천도를 향상시킬 수 있는 손 씻기 교육의 기초자료로 제공하고자 한다.
