Presentation Transcript

  1. Exploring Factors Associated With Nurses’ Adoption of an Evidence-Based Practice to Reduce Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infections Brian T. Conner, PhD, RN, CNE Assistant Professor College of Nursing Medical University of South Carolina

  2. Problem Identification • Risk of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) remains high • Urinary tract infections are most common HAI (HA-UTI) • 80% of HA-UTIs are related to urinary catheterization (HA-CAUTI)

  3. Specific Aims Explore nurses’ perceptions of EBP in general and specific to the use of a nurse-driven urinary tract infection prevention protocol aimed at reducing duration of catheterization.

  4. Rogers’ Diffusion of Innovation Theory Characteristics

  5. Questionnaire Development/Modification • EBPQ – 24-itemself-report with three subscales: • Practice • Attitudes • Knowledge/skills • AECDPQ – 17-item self report with three underlying constructs: • Relative advantage/compatibility • Complexity • Observability

  6. Qualitative Data Collection • Focus groups of 4-6 nurses from intervention unit • Two groups to include various shifts • Grounded Theory

  7. Responses to AECDPQ

  8. Catheter duration

  9. Themes developed from qualitative data

  10. Conclusion • EBP education + practical application of an EBP > increases nurses’ perceptions and attitudes of EBP. • Nurse-driven protocol seen as having relative advantageand compatibility • Need collaboration to test nursedriven protocol in other hospitals around the state
