Purpose: The purpose of the study was done to identify the nursing care needs of patients in the recovery room.
Methods:The subjects in this study were 127 patients in a recovery room between 6/9/2001 and 24/9/2001. The instrument used for this study was the descriptive questionnaire developed by Shin Hyun-Jin (1999). The data was analysed by frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, and factor analysis using the SPSS program.
Results: 1) Kaiser - Meyer - Olkin sample appropriateness was .799 and Bartlett´s test of sphericity significant probability was .000. 2) The mean score for nursing care need of patients in the recovery room was 4.17±.51 of a total possible score of 5. The score of nursing need for different parameters was as follows: Educational need (4.31± 49), physical need (4.27±.47), emotional need (4.11±.52), environmental need (3.99±.56). 3) Differences in the needs for nursing care according to the demographics were significant for gender, marital status, operation experience, and departments consulted. General characteristic variables significantly related to nursing need were as follows: Physical need significantly related to the departments consulted (F=2.23, p=.036). Educational need significantly related to the marital status (F=2.55, P=.012), departments consulted (F=2.30, p=.031). Emotional need significantly related to the marital status (F=2.22, p=.028), Environmental need significantly related to the gender (t=-2.44, p=.016), marital status (F=2.01, p=.046), operation experience (t=-1.99, p=.048).
Conclusion: Nursing care needs of patients in the recovery room are significantly - related to educational need, physical need, emotional need and environmental need. Intervention plans and program need to be developed to improve strategies to meet nursing needs of patients in the recovery room.
