Abstract

We aimed to investigate the association between nurses’ electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring education and their confidence and psychological stress regarding ECG monitoring. In 2019, a web-based cross-sectional study was conducted among Japanese nurses. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the effects of education on nurses’ confidence and psychological stress regarding ECG monitoring. In total, 1652 nurses were included in the study. Factors significantly associated with nurses’ confidence were post-graduate education experience (odds ratio [OR], 2.4; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.6–3.6), ≥11 post-graduate years (OR, 2.2; 95% CI, 1.5–3.1), male gender (OR, 4.4; 95% CI, 2.9–6.6), ≥5 helpful experiences with ECG monitoring (OR, 10.7; 95% CI, 6.0–19.1), work experience in an intensive care unit (OR, 2.3; 95% CI, 1.5–3.7), and work experience in a cardiology department (OR, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.2–2.4). Factors significantly associated with nurses’ psychological stress were male gender (OR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.2–2.9), ≥5 helpful experiences with ECG monitoring (OR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.2–2.9), and work experience in an emergency room (OR, 2.4; 95% CI, 1.3–4.8). These results suggest that nurses’ post-graduate ECG monitoring education enhanced their confidence, but did not reduce psychological stress regarding ECG monitoring.
