|
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify factors that influence the performance of cancer pain management among nurses in an oncology unit.
Methods: The participants of this study were nurses working in an oncology unit at an oncology hospital located in Busan city. Data was collected between January 10 and February 10, 2018 from questionnaire responses received 101 nurses. Measures used for this study assessed knowledge and attitudes toward cancer pain management, patient-centered care, and the performance of cancer pain management. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, an independent t-test, a one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple linear regression analysis.
Results: Performance of cancer pain management was significantly correlated with knowledge (r=.21, p=.032), attitudes toward cancer pain management (r=.21, p=.034), and patient-centered care (r=.33, p=.001). In addition, performance of cancer pain management was influenced by knowledge of cancer pain management (β=.27, p=.008), patient-centered care (β=.33, p=.001), and working in the surgery department (β=.24, p=.012). The explanatory power of this model was 29.3%.
Conclusion: These results suggest the need for programs to improve patient-centered care, and continual education on cancer pain management guidelines, in order to provide organized and effective pain management.
