Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge of healthcare providers, specifically nurses, regarding suturing skills, methods, and types at Al-Basrah Teaching Hospital. A descriptive cross-sectional approach was adopted from January 1, 2023, to July 30, 2023. A purposive sample of 100 nurses, representing both genders and various wards, participated. Preliminary validation was conducted through a pilot study involving ten healthcare providers, and Cronbach's Alpha assessed the survey's reliability. Data analysis was executed using SPSS version 26, focusing on descriptive statistics (mean, SD, frequency) and inferential statistics (chi-square). The demographic profile showed an equal distribution in age (50% aged 20-35), a slight female predominance (52%), and a majority holding diplomas (56%). Results indicated a moderate level of knowledge and proficiency in suturing skills and techniques among the participants. These findings suggest a need for enhanced training and education in suturing to improve patient care outcomes in clinical settings. Highlights : Moderate Suturing Proficiency: Nurses displayed a medium level of knowledge and skill in suturing techniques. Demographic Diversity: Sample included a balanced age distribution, slight female predominance, and majority diploma holders. Training Implications: Results highlight the necessity for improved suturing education to enhance patient care quality. Keywords : Suturing Skills, Nurse Education, Healthcare Training, Cross-Sectional Study, Clinical Competency

Abstract

This study assesses the knowledge and practices of emergency department nurses regarding the care of open fractures, highlighting significant disparities in competence. Conducted across five hospitals, the descriptive, cross-sectional survey included 103 nurses, analyzed using SPSS with results expressed through frequencies, percentages, and Chi-squared tests. Findings reveal that 42.7% of nurses, predominantly females, lack adequate knowledge and care skills, whereas 57.3%, mostly males, are proficient. The study suggests an urgent need for focused training programs to standardize and elevate emergency care for open fractures, aiming to improve patient outcomes through enhanced nursing education. Highlights: Discrepancy in Knowledge: Significant variations in the knowledge and care practices for open fractures among emergency nurses, with nearly 43% lacking sufficient skills. Gender Differences: A notable gender-based disparity in knowledge, with a higher proficiency observed among male nurses compared to female nurses. Need for Training: The urgent requirement for specialized training programs to address gaps and improve overall patient care in emergency situations. Keywords: Open Fractures, Emergency Nursing, Knowledge Gap, Nurse Training, Patient Outcomes
