Knowledge of Nurses on Facilitated Tucking Position during Venipuncture at Misan Child and Maternity Hospital's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Abstract
Objectives: to determine how well nurses understand the assisted tucking posture for venipuncture. to ascertain the correlation between nurses' demographic variables and their knowledge scores.
Methodology: From March 19 to December 9, 2024, a "descriptive (cross sectional) study" was carried out at Misan Children and Maternity Hospital's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
Results: According to the study's findings, most people are unable to relieve discomfort using the aided tucking position. Age, education level, and years of experience in a neonatal intensive care unit did not statistically significantly correlate with the nurses' expertise.
Recommendations: By offering educational posters, guidelines, booklets, and manuals, the study suggests that the neonatal intensive care unit's educational features should receive more attention. Neonatal nurses should also start a policy that offers a particular educational session on how to relieve discomfort without the use of pharmaceuticals.
