ABSTRACT
Objective To know about knowledge about prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in nurses from tertiary hospitals in China,and to analyze influencing factors to provide guidance for nursing of VTE. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among 5279 nurses from 80 tertiary hospitals in 29 provinces (municipalities,and autonomous regions). Results The average score of knowledge about VTE prevention and treatment in nurses was 61.26%. The knowledge was obviously unbalanced. Nurses had poor knowledge of elastic stockings and injection of prefilling anticoagulant drugs. The scores were high for nurses who were over 30 years old, had worked for more than 10 years, and had higher titles. Conclusion Currently knowledge about pre-vention and treatment of VTE in nurses in our country is not ideal,and there is imbalance in knowledge. Training is still an effective approach. There should be standardized training according to level of knowledge of nurses.
