Background & Aim: Bedsore is one of the special health-therapeutic problems and one of the basic problems of hospitalized patients in hospitals worldwide. This study aimed to determine the knowledge and performance of nurses in using Braden's pressure ulcer risk assessment scale.
Materials & Methods: In this descriptive-cross-sectional study, the research population consisted of all the nurses working in the educational-therapeutic centers of Rasht city. The sampling method was stratified random and the sample size was 200 nurses. A three-part questionnaire including a demographic .2information form, and a researcher-made questionnaire was used to evaluate the knowledge level of nurses and the Braden criterion. Independent t-test and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the data. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 16 software and the significance level was considered 0.05.
Results: The majority of subjects in this research were women (92.5%) with an average age of 33.87±7.23 years and work experience of less than 10 years (57.5%). The average knowledge score of nurses was 7.92±2.7, and except for the variables of clinical and post-nursing experience, other factors did not have a significant relationship with the knowledge score of nurses. The correlation between the performance scores of the nurses and the researcher showed a moderate amount of agreement (r = 0.626, P < 0.001).
Conclusion: In this study, nurses' knowledge about the Braden scale was not at the appropriate level, suggesting the need to pay more attention to effective educational methods
