Abstract

Multidrug-resistant organism infections are a serious health problem globally, and can result in patient mortality and morbidity. In this descriptive study, we produced the first web application for transmission prevention specific to the situation based on nursing experience, knowledge, and practice guidelines and to evaluate web application satisfaction among Thai nurses. The sample comprised 282 Thai registered nurses experienced in caring for patients with multidrug-resistant organisms in a tertiary hospital. A demographic form and knowledge test were completed anonymously online. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The application emphasized crucial topics for which participants had low preliminary knowledge and included tutorial sessions, pictures, video clips, drills, and a post-test. The application was piloted with a random sample of 30 nurses, and an instrument tested their satisfaction with this. Results revealed that preliminary knowledge scores for preventing transmission were moderate, and participants were highly satisfied with the application. Findings suggest the application is suitable for Thai nurses and could be applied to nursing practice elsewhere. However, further testing is recommended before implementing it into nursing practice.

护士对预防耐多药生物传播的教育网络应用程序的满意度。

耐多药生物感染是全球严重的健康问题，可导致患者死亡和发病。在这项描述性研究中，我们根据护理经验、知识和实践指南制作了首个针对具体情况的预防传播网络应用程序，并对泰国护士对网络应用程序的满意度进行了评估。研究样本由 282 名泰国注册护士组成，她们都曾在一家三级医院护理过患有耐多药生物的病人。他们匿名在线完成了一份人口统计学表格和知识测试。数据采用描述性统计方法进行分析。该应用程序强调了参与者初步知识较少的关键主题，包括教程、图片、视频剪辑、练习和后测。随机抽样 30 名护士试用了该应用程序，并使用一种工具测试了他们对该应用程序的满意度。结果显示，预防传播的初步知识得分中等，参与者对该应用程序非常满意。研究结果表明，该应用程序适合泰国护士使用，也可应用于其他地方的护理实践。不过，在将其应用于护理实践之前，建议进行进一步测试。

期刊介绍： ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications. The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
