Abstract

Methods: Study subjects were 391 nurses working in 3 general hospitals in D and G metropolitan cities. The data were collected using a self-reported questionnaire which was composed of general characteristics, work-related characteristics, health-related characteristics, infection-related characteristics, and performance of infection control for injections. Collected data were analyzed by SPSS program. The statistical methods of analysis were descriptive analysis, t-test and ANOVA. Finally, multiple linear regression was used to investigate the associated factors with performance of infection control for injection after controlling several covariates. Results: Overall performance score of infection control for injections was 4.56±0.38. The performance score of hand hygiene area was 4.45±0.47 and the performance score of infection control for injection area was 4.62±0.38. Performance of infection control for injection was related with age, working unit, perceived importance of infection control for injection use, and experience of infection control education in multiple linear regression analysis. Conclusion: Performance of infection control for injection was significantly associated with nurses's experience of infection control education. Therefore, in order to improve the performance of infection control for injection, it is necessary to develop the training program and strengthen the training and monitoring according to the change of the infection control instruction.
