标题:La formación y la autopercepción de conocimientos teóricos y habilidades prácticas de los enfermeros de Atención Primaria de Salud del Principado de Asturias en procedimientos de urgencia
摘要:Objective To estimate the formation and the self-perceived level of theoretical knowledge and practical skills of Primary Health Care (APS) of Asturias in 40 procedures of Emergency Medicine, as well as its characteristics. Method Cross-sectional study of a randomized and representative sample of 236 nurses (n) on the total of 730 APS nurses (N) of Asturias on MUE procedures using a structured questionnaire in 2 dimensions, ad hoc and previously evaluated. Results The nurses perceive to have a general theoretical knowledge of the procedures of urgency and emergency of average level (6,39 on 10; standard deviation = 1,56), as well as a general practical skill also of average level (6,50 on 10; standard deviation = 1,46) with significant differences (p<0,05) between the different procedures and areas of health. Some highly excellent procedures in urgency and emergency like the canalization of venous routes, basic vital support or use of defibrillators had so much a level of theoretical knowledge as of practical skill significantly low (p<0,05). Discussion Significant differences exist, both at theoretical and practical level, in the specific knowledge of each of the procedures. For the most part it is perceived to have a better grade of theoretical knowledge than of practical skill to attend to situations of urgency and emergency. It is for it necessarily that the Sanitary Administration assures a homogeneity adapted in the levels of theoretical knowledge and of practical skill of nurses.
