Training of general nurses in the context of decontamination of reusable medical devices and surfaces

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Background: Prevention of healthcare associated infections is still an actual issue. Decontamination is one of the most basic activities of general nurses in the provision of health services. An important role in the decontamination process is also the training of general nurses about the observance of principles related to the chemical disinfection. Aim: To find out the current state of training of general nurses in the issue of decontamination of repeatedly used medical devices and surfaces in clinical practice. Methods: The research was realized by a quantitative method using a questionnaire technique. The research was carried out in a selected regional hospital. The research group consisted of general nurses working in standard departments. Results: The research found out that respondents were trained in the last 2 years most often in the use of personal protective equipment (88.0 % of respondents), the use of cleaning and disinfecting agents (81.5 % of respondents). Furthermore, it was found out that 77.8 % of respondents always emphasize the disinfection of reusable medical devices and surfaces. Discussion: The results of the research brought interesting findings and correspond to some realized researches. Based on the results, it can be recommended to increase the effectiveness of training and implement new aspects of decontamination and prevention of infection transmission, for example, using simulation training for provision of effective feedback. Conclusion: Training of general nurses about sanitary-epidemiological measures is an important part of preventing the transmission of healthcare associated infections.
