Medication Application As a Nursing Activity
BÍLEK, Tomáš
This bachelor thesis focuses on medication administration as a nursing activity and has two main objectives. The first one was to identify mistakes made by nurses when preparing medication or applying medicaments to patients. Another was the analysis of the views of general nurses on the appropriateness of the use of certain medical aids and equipment related to the preparation and administration of drugs and their actual use in their clinical practice when working with patients. This thesis outlines the basic theory of drugs, methods of preparation, various ways of administration to the patient and also possible mistakes that the general nurses may make when handling drugs. Furthermore, the thesis presents results of research conducted during clinical practice in the hospital, which focuses on the proper preparation and administration of drugs by general nurses. The research was based on the covert observation of 20 general nurses working in different hospital wards. It focused on compliance with selected hygiene and safety rules when handling drugs and the use of selected aids to prepare the application of drugs to patients. In addition, the answers from the questionnaire survey, which was attended by 62 general nurses from various medical facilities, but mainly from hospitals, are analysed here. Using statistical methods, hypotheses concerning the influence of age, gender, education and length of practice of general nurses on the use of selected nursing aids and compliance with selected rules were tested. In conclusion, the most important findings concerning the satisfaction of general nurses with the current system of preparation and application of drugs at their workplaces are given, as well as the findings concerning non-compliance with certain hygienic standards. Finally, recommendations are presented that the hospital should adopt in order to increase the awareness of general nurses about this problem and to arrange a remedy.
