Effectiveness of Flipped Learning on Nurses' Knowledge, Attitude, and Self-efficacy in Pressure Injury Prevention

Overview

The occurrence of pressure injuries mainly comes from disabled patients who are bedridden for a long time. According to a report from the Ministry of Health and Welfare, about one-tenth of chronic patients need to be bedridden for a long time, and pressure injuries account for the most in the comorbidities of bedridden for a long time. The main cause of pressure injury is the natural aging of the patient's body and long-term bed rest so that it is difficult to detect physical stress and cannot change the posture within an effective time to reduce the pressure, which is prone to pressure injury. The prevalence rates of stress injuries in various countries are 13-23% in the Netherlands, 10-15% in the United States, and 8-23% in Europe. In addition, studies have also shown that the prevalence of stress injuries in the elderly in the UK is 0.31-0.70%. The incidence rate is 0.18-3.36% and these two indicators are increasing year by year; in Taiwan, related surveys show that the prevalence rate of pressure injury in hospitalized patients is 7.53%, and the incidence rate of pressure injury in bedridden patients is 36.8%. According to a National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP) survey, the prevalence rate of stress injuries in acute wards ranges from 0.1% to 17%, and the incidence rate is 0.4% to 38%. The prevalence of intensive care units The prevalence rate is higher than 41%, the incidence rate is higher than 33%, the prevalence rate of long-term care is 2.3% -28%, the prevalence rate is 2.2%-23.9%, the prevalence rate of nursing homes is 0% -29%, and the prevalence rate is 0%- 17%. In addition, NPUAP estimates in 1989 show that the average medical cost for each stress injury case ranges from 2,000 to 30,000 US dollars, while the medical cost for each stress injury patient in Taiwan is about NT 7,000 to 80,000. If the knowledge of stress injury prevention can be improved, the number of outpatient visits will be reduced, and the occurrence of stress injury will also be reduced. In summary, under the trend of aging development, stress injury management and care are important issues of medical quality.

The purpose of this research is to integrate the past education that affects nursing staff to receive care for stress injuries and to explore the intervention of different education measures, including conventional education methods and digital flipped education methods, to measure nursing staff Effectiveness in learning about the knowledge, attitude, self-awareness and self-efficacy of pressure injury management.
