| Abstrakt: | Objective: The objective of this survey is to assess nurses and pe-diatric nurses' knowledge about pediatric procedures and to evaluate, according to the results, whether it may be useful to provide handbooks that include the main techniques, courses or CME. Materials and Methods: This study is a cross-sectional survey car-ried out from 31st of May 2020 to 21st July 2020 including a sample of 811 subjects. To analyze data obtained from questionnaire, it has been used Distribution Frequency, analysis of variance and multiple regression analysis. Results: The sample analyzed, 585 nurses and 226 pediatric nurses, aged >20years, originates from central Italy (54,7%). Most profes-sionals had a post degree training (66,8%) According to ANOVA, the subjects with major knowledge of pediatric procedures are male (p=<0,001) and pediatric nurses (p=< 0,001); furthermore, post degree training (p=0,004) and a larger amount of years of service (p= <0,001) could affect significantly professionals training. Moreover, based on multiple linear regression analysis, what played a major role in a better nurse education was the higher age, 31-40 years old (p= <0,001) and origin from northern Italy (p=<0,001). Conclusions: After a literature review on the main database, this study appears to be the first of its genre. The Survey demonstrates how pediatric nursing techniques are poorly known within nursing environment. To give a contribution for a better improvement in this field it is requested a pediatric nursing degree or at least a master in pediatrics and continue training. |
