Purpose:The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between clinical knowledge and provision of pressure ulcer care and to identify factors associated with performance of care.
Methods:Participants were 202 nurses working in one of 6 small to medium hospitals. Self-report questionnaire were used and data were collected from December 11 to 18, 2009.
Results: Mean score for knowledge about pressure ulcer care was 0.81. In subcategories, knowledge of risk factors inducing pressure ulcers was 0.93, knowledge of assessment of pressure ulcers was 0.90, and knowledge of treatment methods for pressure ulcers was 0.61. Mean score for performance of care activities for patients with pressure ulcers was 3.63/5. There was a significant positive correlation between knowledge and performance (r=.319, p<.001). According to multiple regression analysis, general perception (β=.306, p<.001), knowledge (ß=.247, p<.001), and hospital size (β=.156, p= .015) had an impact on the extent of nurses’ performance of pressure ulcer care.
Conclusion: Study results indicate that further education on pressure ulcer care is necessary to enhance nurses’ knowledge about pressure ulcers and to increase rate of performance of pressure ulcer care.
