Abstract
Background: Due to ongoing research and the advancement of new technology, critical care
settings are experiencing rapid changes in patient demand and the provision of patient care.
Aim: To assess relation between nurses’ perception of using technological medical devices
and patient safety at intensive care units. Design: correlational research design. Setting: This
study was conducted at Neurological and Surgical Intensive Care at Tanta Main University
Hospital. Subjects: All nurses (115) who were working within the already specified setting
were included All nurses (115) who working in the previously mentioned setting were
included. Tools: Three tools were used in the process of data collecting. Tool I: Nurse
Perception regarding Technological Medical Devices. Tool (II): Patients’ Safety Checklist
regarding Use of Technological Medical Devices. Tool (III): Nursing Practice Observational
Checklist regarding Use of Technological Medical Devices. Results: It was revealed that
most of the nurses had high perception level of the positive aspect of technological devices.
On the other hand most of the studied nurse had a low perception level of the negative aspect
of technological devices, there was a significant statistical association between total
perception level, total safety level and total practice level respectively were r = 0.693 ,
0.000** , r = 0.359 , 0.000** respectively. Conclusion: There were statically significant
correlation between total perception level and total safety level. Recommendations:
Updating the nurse’s knowledge and safety practice about positive and negative aspect of
using technological medical devices in patient care and applying the study on larger
probability sample.
