Purpose: This study aimed to determine the factors related to the knowledge and attitudes of critical care nurses, pertaining to end-of-life care in the ICU.
Methods: A descriptive correlational study using a self-report survey was conducted, and the results were evaluated using the Scale of End-of-Life Care in the ICU (EOL-ICU). The participants were all ICU nurses at a university hospital in Seoul. The response rate was 73%. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression using the SPSS 25.0 statistical program.
Results: The EOL-ICU knowledge score was positively correlated with the length of the clinical career (r=.20, p=.017), the length of the ICU career (r=.20, p=.017), and the level of interest in hospice and palliative care (r=.20, p=.023). Moreover, age (r=.23, p=.006), the length of the clinical career (r=.19, p=.025), the length of the ICU career (r=.20, p=.023), and the number of dying patients he or she takes care of per month (t=-2.55, p=.012) were significantly associated with the EOL-ICU attitude score.
Conclusion: It is necessary to provide education and training programs to improve knowledge and skills related to end-of life care in ICUs.
