Tiivistelmä
Surgical site infections (SSIs) pose a significant threat to patient safety, leading to prolonged hospital stays, increased morbidity and even mortality. Preventing SSIs has become a critical focus in healthcare settings worldwide. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the role of nurses in preventing bacterial contamination and surgical site infections (SSIs) in the operating theater environment. The thesis focuses on identifying the risk factors associated with the prevention of SSIs and the skills required of nurses to effectively perform their roles. This literature review was conducted using inductive content analysis approach through searching articles from CINAHL and Sage Journals databases. Articles published in English within the past five years were examined. The findings from the literature review revealed two main themes: preventing SSIs by managing external risk factors and managing and/or improving nurses’ skills. Organizational structure, technology use and working conditions are crucial in preventing surgical site infections by managing external risk factors. Effective communication, positive attitudes and strong leadership skills are essential in preventing SSIs by managing and improving nurses’ technical and non-technical skills. In conclusion, as surgical site infections can have devastating consequences, it is crucial to continue to provide educational programs to surgical nurses to improve their skills and attitudes towards safety culture. Nurses play a critical role in creating a culture of patient safety and their knowledge and skills are essential in preventing surgical site infections. Recent literature on SSIs prevention underscore the ongoing significance of this issue, indicating the necessity for further research.
