Abstract

Cholecystectomy surgery was and still one of the favorite cures for symptomatic cholecystolithiasis. Aim: The present study aimed at developing nurses` performance guidelines for patients undergoing cholecystectomy based on needs assessment. Methods: A descriptive exploratory design was utilized for the conduction of this study. This study was conducted in the surgical departments at El demerdash surgical Hospital, affiliated to Ain Shams University. Sample: A convenient sample of 50 nurses from both genders in the surgical wards working with patients undergoing (open and laparscopic) cholecystectomy. They were recruited from the above mentioned settings. Tools: 1) Self administered questionnaire to assess nurses’ knowledge for patients undergoing open and laparscopic) cholecystectomy. 2) An observational checklist to evaluate nurses’ practices for patients undergoing (open and laparscopic) cholecystectomy at pre / postoperative period. Results: The mean age of the studied nurses was 43.25 ± 11.01. There was a highly positive relation between studied nurses total levels of practices and knowledge. There was a statistical significant relation between nurses` knowledge and practices as regards their demographic characteristics. Conclusion: Nearly two thirds of the studied nurses had unsatisfactory level of knowledge and practices in relation to caring of patients undergoing cholecystectomy. On the same line a statistical significant relation was indicated as regards their demographic characteristics and cholecystectomy surgery. Recommendations: Further research studies are needed to identify the effect of implementing the developed guidelines on performance of nurses caring for patients undergoing cholecystectomy.
