Purpose: This study was done to identify the level of knowledge on and stress from delirium among recovery room nurses, and correlations between these factors.
Methods: In this study, 125 nurses agreed to participate in the study were surveyed from October 8 to October 28, 2013. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test and Pearson correlation.
Results: Average percentage of correct answers to questions about delirium was 81.9% and the mean score was 26.22 (±5.01). The mean score for recovery room nurses’ work stress from emergency delirium was 3.86 (±0.99). Extent of knowledge on delirium significantly differed by age (F=15.017, p .001), length of clinical experience (F=22.132, p .001), length of recovery room experience (F=10.538, p .001), education (F=3.312, p =.040), and marital status (t=4.107, p .001). Stress from ED was significantly related to age (F=9.185, p .001), clinical experience (F=7.077, p=.001), and marital status (t=-2.027, p =.045). Knowledge on delirium had a negative relationship with stress from delirium (r=-.514, p .001).
Conclusion: Results show that nurses gained knowledge of delirium from their own clinical experience indicating a need to develop educational programs to improve knowledge on delirium and plans to reduce stress from delirium for recovery room nurses.
