Introduction: Nurses working in Intensive Care Units of COVID-19 are more exposed to occupational anxiety because of the limitations caused by the use of personal protective equipment.
Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effect of training on the use of personal protective equipment by simulation method on the level of occupational anxiety of nurses working in Intensive Care Units of COVID-19.
Materials and Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted in 2021 with the participation of 50 nurses working in Intensive Care Units of COVID-19 in two selected Aja Hospitals in Tehran. The data collection tools were demographic and occupational anxiety questionnaire of Philip L. Rice (1992). Training on the use of personal protective equipment was conducted through interactive simulation during three 60-minute sessions in each work shift and two control groups (25 people) and test groups (25 people). Questionnaires were administered to people in the form of pre-test and post-test and one month after the intervention and were completed. The normal distribution of the data was performed using the Kolmogorov test and with the help of
SPSS software of version 21.
Conclusion: It is recommended to train the use of personal protective equipment by simulation method with the combination of other training methods in military hospital nurses in Intensive Care Units of COVID-19.
Materials and Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted in 2021 with the participation of 50 nurses working in Intensive Care Units of COVID-19t in two selected Aja hospitals in Tehran. People were randomly assigned to two test and control groups. The sample size was calculated to be 50 people (25 people in each group). The data collection tool was Philip L. Rice’s Demographic and Occupational
Anxiety Questionnaire (1992). Training on the use of personal protective equipment was conducted through interactive simulation during three 60-minute sessions. Questionnaires were given to the people in the form of pre-test and post-test and one month after the intervention and were completed. Data were analyzed with SPSS version 21 software.
