Results: The highest categories of noncompliance of critical care nursing standards were admission care() and infection control(). The main causes of noncompliance critical care nursing standards that nurses regarded as causes were lack of attention(80.7%). ICU nurses mainly reported their noncompliance to charge nurses(89.3%) within 30minutes (84.7%).

The reasons they didn’t report were that they thought it might be not a problem and there was no change of patients conditions.
