Abstract:

Objective Based on the current status and potential issues, this study aims to develop a training program on patient positioning for junior nurses and evaluate its effectiveness. Methods From February to March 2025,45 junior nurses in the operating room from one branch hospital of a Grade A Class Ⅲ hospital were selected as the experimental group,the teaching team followed the “analysis-design-development-implementation-evaluation” model,based on thorough analysis of actual circumstances and training needs,guided by teaching objectives and adhering to pedagogical principles,it designed teaching programms for patient positioning,developed teaching resources,implemented training programs,and evaluated the teaching carried out. Thirty-one junior nurses in the operating room from another branch hospital were selected as the control group to receive conventional patient positioning training. The theoretical assessment scores,operational assessment scores and teaching satisfaction of the two groups of junior nurses after training were compared. Results The theoretical assessment scores(89.93±6.00) in the experimental group were higher than those(83.42±6.96) of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);the operational assessment scores of the four surgical position in the experimental group were higher than those of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);the teaching satisfaction(23.53±1.14) in the experimental group was higher than that(20.55±1.86) in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion The positioning management training is syste-matic and standardized. It can improve the theoretical and operational levels of junior nurses in positioning mana-gement,enhance their abilities to analyze and solve problems,and improve the teaching quality and training effect.
