Knowledge versus Usage of Suction Technique of Lower Respiratory Tract by Nurses in Intensive Care
Dingová, Michaela ; Línková, Šárka (advisor) ; Špatenková, Věra (referee)
The topic of the thesis "Knowledge versus Usage of Suction Technique of Lower Respiratory Tract by Nurses in Intensive Care" is the comparison of nurses' knowledge with practical actions during lower airway suctioning. To this end, the thesis is divided into several parts. The first part briefly describes the theoretical basis of the task, from patient preparation, through the performance of the task to the subsequent care of the patient. The next part of this thesis is the research part, for which two objectives were identified - to determine the effect of length of practice on knowledge of the lower airway suction procedure and to determine whether the suction procedure matches the nurses' knowledge. In the practical part a questionnaire survey is described to determine the level of nurses' theoretical knowledge and an observation to assess the level of practical performance. In the results, the null hypotheses were confirmed, namely, that the length of experience of critical care nurses/paramedics does not affect their knowledge of the lower airway suctioning procedure, and that the practical procedure of lower airway suctioning does not match the knowledge of the lower airway suctioning procedure of critical care nurses/paramedics. The recommendation for practice is to update the information...
