Book Nursing Students  Knowledge and Attitudes Regarding Pain and Pain Management

Download or read book Nursing Students Knowledge and Attitudes Regarding Pain and Pain Management written by Ruth L. Schaffler and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pain is a universal human experience and is a primary reason people seek health care; however, undertreatment of pain has been reported in the literature as a significant clinical problem for more than three decades. Researchers have concluded that nurses have inadequate knowledge of pain assessment, are misinformed about opioids, and have inappropriate attitudes about pain and pain management that lead to the undertreatment of pain. One question is whether those misconceptions are acquired in nursing school or whether they are present when students enroll in nursing programs. The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to examine the attitudes regarding pain and pain management among entry-level nursing students. Eighty-nine nursing students were recruited from two baccalaureate nursing programs and divided into control and experimental groups. An educational intervention relating to pain was provided to students in the experimental group. Ajzen's (1991) Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) served as the theoretical framework to measure attitudes about pain and to predict whether nursing students would administer opioid analgesics to patients experiencing pain. The survey instruments consisted of the Pain Survey and the Pain Management Survey developed by Edwards et al. (2001). Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze and compare pretest and posttest data. Results indicated that students have misconceptions about pain and the administration of opioid analgesics similar to the general population. However, overall attitudes toward pain and pain management were positive. The TPB constructs accurately predicted nursing students' intentions to administer opioid analgesia to patients experiencing pain.

This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 1742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Neuroscience of Pain, Anesthetics and Analgesics examines the syndromes of pain and how they interlink with anesthesia and analgesics.

Sections address the onset of pain, the cause of pain, and the administration of analgesia or anesthesia. The book works to clarify all of the subjects pertinent to anesthesia and the brain. Featuring chapters on neurotransmitters, pharmacology and brain imaging, this volume discusses the mechanisms of pain and experimental studies undertaken to better understand the pathways involved.

Book Evaluating Knowledge and Attitudes of Undergraduate Nursing Students Regarding Pain Management

Download or read book Evaluating Knowledge and Attitudes of Undergraduate Nursing Students Regarding Pain Management written by Jessica Latchman and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Unmanaged pain is a widespread problem that many cancer patients face on a daily basis. Cancer pain, which can either be caused by complications due to the disease process itself or from treatment measures used, has devastating effects on the quality of life for these patients and their caregivers. This study examined the knowledge and attitudes of undergraduate students regarding pain management. The sample in this study consisted of 41 undergraduate students at the University of South Florida College of Nursing. The students sampled were predominantly white, (n=30), female (n=37), seniors (n=41) taking Leadership and Management in Nursing. After volunteering to participate, students completed the demographic data form, the nurses' attitude survey and the Pain Management Principles Assessment Tool. The mean age of students was 22.46 years, with a range from 18 to 42 years. One student indicated that he or she had a bachelor's degree in another field with the majority of students being first time college students (n=31). The results of the study showed that a mean score of 19.4 (SD= 3.0) out of a possible 31(63%) was achieved on the knowledge of the students regarding pain management while, a mean score of 17.0 (SD=2.6) out of 25 (68%) was achieved on the Nurses' Attitude Survey. The data showed that nursing students demonstrated inadequate knowledge regarding pain management, and had mixed attitudes towards pain management. However, a weak to moderate relationship between knowledge and attitudes was found (r=0.33, p=0.038) due to the fact that students lacked the fundamental knowledge, and understanding as to why they were practicing certain pain management skills. Although the sample size was relatively small and not ethnically or demographically diverse, the response from the sample was sufficient in providing statistically meaningful data for this study. The results were seen to be consistent with previous studies that show poor management of pain. The findings of this study suggest the need for the development of specific strategies to effectively teach students about pain management, as well as integrate pain management as a major component of the undergraduate-nursing curriculum to improve patient outcomes.
