Abstract:

Objective To evaluate the standardization degree of 23 frequently-used nursing skills in clinical settings.Methods The participant observation was carried out among 40 nurses from four tertiary hospitals in Beijing to understand the standardization degree of 23 common nursing skills.Self-designed record and evaluation form were used to evaluate the standardization degree.Results The general standardization degree of 23 nursing skills was 66.30%±13.55%,according to the standardized operation procedures provided by hospitals.The standardization degree of aseptic operations was higher than that of non-aseptic operations(P<0.01). Four general problems were found during the evaluation including lack of assessment and explanation(34.78%±6.15%),lack of health education after the procedure(52.17%±6.15%),poor implementation of double-checking(38.04%±2.17%) and non-standard medication preparation(100%).Conclusion There are differences between actual nursing operation procedures in clinical settings and the standardized operation procedures provided by hospitals. Clinical nursing administrators should provide training to improve the standardization degree of nursing operations and revise nursing operation standardization regularly according to the development of nursing discipline.
