Öz:
Amaç: Bu araştırmada amaç, Doğu Anadolu Bölgesindeki bir ilimizin Devlet Hastanesinin Yoğun Bakım Ünitesinde çalışan sağlık personelinin el hijyeni ile ilgili davranışlarının değerlendirilmesidir. Yöntem: Araştırma, Doğu Anadolu Bölgesinde yer alan bir Devlet Hastanesinin Koroner, Anestezi ve Dâhiliye Yoğun Bakım Kliniklerinde hasta bakım ve tedavi hizmeti veren sağlık çalışanlarına anket uygulanması yoluyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın evrenini bu hastanede çalışan 51 sağlık personeli oluşturmuş, araştırma evreninin tamamı ile (51 kişi) gönüllü katılım esasına göre yürütülmüştür (Cevaplılık oranı: %100). Araştırmada kullanılan anket formu literatür bilgisine uygun olarak araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilmiştir. Veriler istatistik paket programında değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan kişilerin yaş ortalamaları 31,66±7,34 (min: 18, max: 56) şeklinde olup %53,0’ü kadınlardan ve %54,9’u hemşirelerden oluşmaktadır. El yıkamada en çok tercih ettikleri yöntemin (%68,6 oranında) su ve sabun olduğu ayrıca el yıkama sıklıklarının %84,3 oranında sık sık şeklinde ifade edildiği saptanmıştır. Katılımcıların, %23,5’inin malzeme yetersizliği, %11,8’inin yoğun iş yükü nedeniyle zaman yetersizliği, %7,8’inin ise, ellerinin tahriş olmasından dolayı el yıkayamadığı belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Araştırmanın yapıldığı Devlet Hastanesi Yoğun Bakımında çalışan sağlık personelinin el yıkama davranışının istendik düzeyde ve şekilde olmadığı öte yandan fiziki koşulların da bu durum için yeterli olmadığı saptanmıştır. Bu nedenle Devlet Hastanesinde yoğun bakım ünitesi gibi öncelikli alanlarda hizmet verenlerin hem kendileri hem de bakım sundukları bireylerin sağlığını optimum düzeyde sürdürebilmeleri ve bilimsel metotlarla el yıkama davranışı edinmeleri için tekrarlı uygulamalarla hizmet içi eğitimlere tabi tutulmaları, bu manada hastanenin teknik ve yeterli donanımsal araçlara kavuşturulması önemlidir.
