【摘要】 目的:了解本地区医疗机构体温计使用现状及存在问题。方法:自行设计问卷对本地区12家医疗机构252名临床护士进行调查,内容包括主要测温工具、体温计使用管理、护士对各种体温计使用方法的认知、护士对汞污染危害的认知等。结果:水银体温计、无汞体温计在医疗机构的使用率分别是100%、48.39%;90.08%的被调查护士有打破水银体温计经历,其中仅有48.63%的护士认为自己能正确处理泄露在环境中的汞;护士对无汞体温计使用方法、注意事项等的认知率均<30%,与水银体温计比较有统计学差异;医疗机构对无汞体温计的使用管理不规范。结论:本地区医疗机构体温测量呈多元化趋势;医疗机构存在汞污染风险;护士无汞体温计使用知识缺乏;无汞体温计临床使用管理存在空白,希望得到管理层的重视和护理相关规范的支持。更多还原

【Abstract】 Objectives: To investigate the current status of thermometers usage and existing problems. Methods: Totally 252 clinical nurses were recruited from 12 medical institutions in Kunshan and investigated by a self-designed questionnaire including major temperature measurement devices, thermometer usage management, nurses’ cognitions of various kinds of thermometers usage and mercury pollution hazard. Results: The usage rates of mercury thermometer and mercury free thermometers in medical institutions were 100% and 48.39%, respectively. About 90.08% nurses had the experience of breaking mercury thermometer and only 48.63% of them considered they could properly handle the leakage of mercury in the environment. The cognition rates of the mercury free thermometers usage method and usage matters needing attention were <30%, which was statistically significant with those of mercury-thermometers. The usage and management of mercury free thermometer in medical institutions were not normative. Conclusion: Temperature measurement in medical institutions has diversified trend. Medical institutions have mercury pollution risk. The nurses lack the knowledge of mercury free thermometers usage which is poorly managed. We hope the current status of thermometers usage could arouse the attention from the managers and get the related support for standardization.更多还原
