Podaci su prikupljani temeljem Google obrasca u vremenskom razdoblju od 27.07.2021. do 04.08.2021. godine. Upitnik je sadržavao deset pitanja koja se odnose na znanje o navedenom patogenu, te deset pitanja o stavovima koje ispitanici imaju. Istraživanje je ustrojeno kao presječno. Najviše ispitanika je u dobi od 19 – 30 godina točnije 55,6% dok je prema razini obrazovanja najviše zastupljeno ispitanika više stručne spreme, njih 52,8%.
Znanje koje su pokazali ispitanici ocijenjeno je kao dobro. Nešto manje znanja pokazali su na pitanjima koja se odnose na kolonizaciju ruku zdravstvenih djelatnika i pacijenata ovim bolničkim patogenom. Najviše ispitanika, njih 32 (29,6 %) ima 7 točnih odgovora, a njih 20 (18,5 %) ima osam točnih odgovora. Samo 44,4% ispitanih stava da će aktualna pandemija COVID-19 bolesti povećati upotrebu antimikrobnih lijekova. Isto tako samo 30,6% ispitanih smatra da se njihovi radni kolege dovoljno pridržavaju mjera sprječavanja širenja infekcije Acinetobacterom primjerice pranjem ruku ili mijenjanjem rukavica, dok njih 67,6% navodi da mijenjaju rukavice iza svakog bolesnika i svake radnje. Stavovi ispitanika koji se odnose na higijenu ruku i mijenjanje rukavica iza svakog pacijenta te na važnost bolničke okoline u prevenciji pozitivni su, a negativno su ocijenjeni stavovi vezani uz nedovoljno izdvajanje financijskih sredstava ustanova na edukaciju te nedovoljno pridržavanje mjere za sprečavanje infekcija Acinetobacterom od strane radnih kolega. Stoga se naglasak stavlja na prevenciju infekcija Acinetobacterom što se može postići najprije edukacijom, a potom pravilnom higijenom ruku te racionalnim korištenjem antimikrobnih lijekova. Uz sve navedeno vrlo je važno identificirati uzročnika što ranije i provoditi posebne protokole čišćenja prema aktualnim smjernicama svake ustanove.
Abstract (english) The survey on the knowledge and opinions of nurses/ technicians about Acinetobacter was conducted among 108 respondents, most of whom are women, 77.8%. Data were collected based on the Google form in the period from 27 July 2021 to 04 October 2021. The questionnaire contained ten questions related to knowledge about the pathogen and ten questions about the opinions of the respondents. The research is organized as cross-sectional. Most respondents are aged 19-30 (55.6%) while according to the level of education, the highest number of respondents is those with a university degree, 52.8%. The knowledge demonstrated by the respondents was rated as good. Somewhat less knowledge was shown on issues related to the colonization of the hands of healthcare professionals and patients by this hospital pathogen. Most respondents, 32 of them (29.6%) have 7 correct answers, and 20 of them (18.5%) have eight correct answers. Only 44.4% of respondents believe that the current pandemic of COVID-19 disease will increase the use of antimicrobial drugs. Also, only 30.6% of respondents believe that their work colleagues adhere sufficiently to measures to prevent the spread of Acinetobacter infection, for example by washing hands or changing gloves, while 67.6% state that they change gloves after every patient and every procedure. Respondents opinions towards hand hygiene and changing gloves after each patient and the importance of the hospital environment in prevention were positive, while opinions related to insufficient allocation of financial resources of institutions for education and insufficient adherence to measures to prevent Acinetobacter infections by colleagues, were negative. Therefore, the emphasis is on the prevention of Acinetobacter infections, which can be achieved first by education, then by proper hand hygiene and rational use of antimicrobial drugs. In addition, it is very important to identify the cause as early as possible and implement special cleaning protocols according to the current guidelines of each institution.
