Description
Introduction: Nurses’ compliance with standard precautions is a viable tool for decreasing
health hazards in health centers.
Objective: This study aimed to identify factors affecting compliance with Standard
Precautions (SPs) of infection control based on the Health Belief Model (HBM) among
emergency department nurses employed in the educational-therapeutic centers affiliated
with Guilan University Medical Sciences in Rasht City, Iran.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study included 252 nurses working in the
emergency departments of hospitals in Rasht City. The study samples were recruited
using the convenience sampling method from September to October 2020. Nurses
completed questionnaires, including demographics data, HBM constructs, knowledge,
and compliance with standard precautions. A hierarchical multiple linear regression
analysis was used to identify factors related to compliance with SPs.
Results: The Mean±SD age of the nurses was 32.77±7.05 years, and the majority of them
were females (88.9%). Their Mean±SD score for compliance with SPs was 63.2±16.0 (out of
100). The multivariable analysis results showed that the knowledge (β=0.47, 95%CI; 0.30-0.64,
P=0.001), perceived benefits (β=0.19, 95%CI; 0.03-0.36, P=0.022) and perceived susceptibility
(β=0.25, 95%CI; 0.13-0.36, P=0.001) constructs of HBM were positively correlated with the
compliance with SPs. Furthermore, the level of education was significantly related to the
compliance with SPs (β=9.51, 95%CI; 0.02-18.99, P=0.049). The final model accounted for
39.8% of the variance in compliance with SPs.
Conclusion: Results indicated improvement in activity and safety level of the healthcare
workers and also an increase in the overall level of compliance among nurses through
education, regular training, and use of encouragement and punishment policies. It is
suggested to follow the World Health Organization protocols. Also, the support management
could have a better effect on perceived benefits and cues to action.
