English abstract:
      Objective To investigate the current status of knowledge, attitude and practice of nurses in mental health hospitals on the prevention and control of nosocomial infections, and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods From June to August 2020, 402 clinical nurses from 8 mental health hospitals in a city were enrolled using simple random sampling method, and were assessed using a self-compiled knowledge-attitude-practice questionnaire related to the nosocomial infection prevention and control, thereafter, the influencing factors were screened.Results The scores of knowledge, attitude and practice dimensions in relation to the nosocomial infection prevention and control among the nurses were (8.43±1.84), (76.01±5.70) and (57.42±3.75), respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the knowledge dimension score demonstrated significant difference among nurses of different types of hospital, grades of hospital, professional titles, education levels, and emphasis degrees of hospital and individual on nosocomial infection (P<0.05 or 0.01). The attitude dimension scores yielded significant difference among nurses of different types of hospital, position, grades of hospital, and emphasis degrees of hospital and individual on nosocomial infection (P<0.05 or 0.01). The practice dimension scores manifested significant difference among nurses of different types of hospital, grades of hospital, professional titles, emphasis degrees of hospital and individual on nosocomial infection, and training frequency (P<0.05 or 0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that professional titles and individual emphasis on nosocomial infection entered the regression model of nurses' knowledge dimension of nosocomial infection prevention and control (P<0.05 or 0.01). Individual emphasis on nosocomial infection, hospital types and position entered the regression model of attitude dimension (P<0.05 or 0.01). Individual emphasis on nosocomial infection, hospital types, professional titles, and hospital emphasis on nosocomial infection entered the regression model of practice dimension (P<0.05 or 0.01).Conclusion Nurses in mental health hospital have a positive attitude towards nosocomial infection prevention and control, but their knowledge base needs to be strengthened.
