| Abstract | AimThe aim of the study was to identify factors associated with nurses’ pain management practices in older patients undergoing surgery.DesignA cross‐sectional study.MethodsThe study sample was 85 Registered nurses working in inpatient surgical units in a tertiary care hospital, Thailand. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, Pearson’s and point biserial correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression analysis.ResultsA positive correlation was found between practices and (a) pain management training and (b) perceptions related to collaboration with physicians. However, practices were negatively related to (a) the nurses’ perception of their workload and (b) the number of years of nursing experience. The recent pain management training, the nurses’ perceptions of both collaboration with physicians and their workload explained 24.40% of the variance in practices. Appropriate nursing workloads, regular pain management training and promoting collaboration among the healthcare team could all improve the quality of nurses’ postoperative pain management. |
