“…According to Mekhoa, Mooi and Baloyi (2022), pressure ulcers are still a significant problem globally, but the lower and middle-income countries are more affected by pressure ulcers because of poor health systems. Lotfi et al (2019) and Van Damme et al (2019) argue that the presence or absence of pressure ulcers illustrates the quality of nursing care provided by the healthcare workers.…”

Background: Student nurses provide nursing care to patients during clinical allocation, and their competence may affect the quality of care given to the patients. Good knowledge and positive attitudes enhance early detection for prevention and management of pressure ulcers.Aim: To determine undergraduate nursing students’ knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) towards prevention and management of pressure ulcers.Setting: A nursing education institution in Windhoek, Namibia.Methods: A quantitative, cross-sectional research design was used to conveniently sample (n = 50) student nurses and collect data using a self-administered questionnaire. Data were analysed using the statistical software programme (SPSS) version 27. Descriptive frequencies were applied, and Fishers exact test was performed. A statistical value of p 0.05 was considered significant.Results: Fifty (n = 50) student nurses consented to participate in the study. Student nurses reported good levels of knowledge (n = 35; 70%), attitude (n = 39; 78%), practices (n = 47; 94%). There was no statistically significant association between demographic variables and the level of knowledge, attitudes and practices, p 0.05.Conclusion: Student nurses have good knowledge, positive attitudes and practices on prevention and management of pressure ulcers. By the implications, the study concludes that the nursing students will competently manage the pressure ulcers occurring in the clinical setting. An observational study is recommended to assess practices in the clinical setting.Contribution: The findings of this study will help to close the gap in the implementation of standard operating procedures for the prevention and management of pressure ulcers.

“…Therefore, the pro-active preventive attitudes of nurses towards IAD also promote favourable preventive behaviours. Some instruments can be used for measuring knowledge gaps, attitudes and behaviours of IAD prevention in nurses, but these scales and questionnaires are independent, which are not convenient and efficient (Beeckman, 2017;Beeckman et al, 2016;S ¸ahin et al, 2019;Van Damme et al, 2019). Therefore, we need an integrated tool that can quantitatively measure the level of nurses' knowledge, attitudes and practices in preventing IAD.…”

Background: It has been reported that the knowledge, attitudes and practices of nurses play a significant role in preventing incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD), and these three factors influence and interact with each other. This study aimed to translate the English version of the Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices of Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis Questionnaire (KAP-IAD-Q) into Chinese and assess the validity and reliability of the Chinese KAP-IAD-Q (C-KAP-IAD-Q) used with Chinese nurses. Methods: The KAP-IAD-Q was translated into Chinese strictly in accordance with the Brislin translation model, and a Chinese version of IAD was formed after discussion by experts. From October to November 2021, a total of 259 Chinese nurses were recruited through a convenience sampling method and investigated using the Chinese version of the knowledge, attitudes and practices of the incontinenceassociated dermatitis questionnaire (C-KAP-IAD-Q) and the general self-efficacy scale to assess its reliability and validity.Results: Three factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis comprised of 22 items. The Cronbach's α coefficients were 0.961, 0.929 and 0.833, and the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.98 totally. The scale-level content validity index (S-CVI) was 0.95, and the item-level content validity (I-CVI) was 0.83-1.00. The correlation coefficient between the general self-efficacy scale and the C-KAP-IAD-Q was 0.561 (P < 0.01). Conclusion:The 22-item C-KAP-IAD-Q seems to be culturally well adapted and has good psychometric properties used by Chinese nurses.

“…Daí a importância da manutenção de níveis adequados de conhecimento e atitudes assertivas por parte desses profissionais. A utilização de práticas de cuidado pautadas em uma enfermagem baseada em evidências favorece a diminuição do tempo de permanência hospitalar e a redução de eventos adversos 11,12 .…”

Objetivo:avaliar o nível de conhecimentos da equipe de enfermagem da clínica médica de um hospital universitário sobre lesão por pressão. Método: estudo descritivo-exploratório, aprovado por Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa. Os dados foram coletados através de questionário validado. Participaram 50 indivíduos, sendo 35 técnicos de enfermagem e 15 enfermeiros. Resultados: os técnicos em enfermagem obtiveram média de 83,5% e os enfermeiros obtiveram média de 89,9%. Realizou-se um modelo de regressão para verificar variáveis que influenciam no nível de conhecimento, sendo identificado que possuir mais de 5 anos na profissão aumenta 1,61 vezes a chance de o profissional apresentar um conhecimento adequado. Conclusão: foi identificada uma fragilidade no conhecimento sobre lesão por pressão. Tendo em vista os custos envolvidos no tratamento e as complicações advindas dessas lesões, as instituições de saúde devem implementar ações educativas sobre esse agravo.
