Abstract
The optimal performance of gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy nurses is required for patient safety and quality improvement. The aim of the present study was to assess the educational needs for simulation-based training for Korean GI endoscopy nurses using importance-performance analysis. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 238 Korean nurses from 25 endoscopy units. The educational needs of these nurses were identified using the 35 item clinical competence importance-performance scale. Exploratory factor analysis of the scale identified the following eight factors: emergency care, patient monitoring, evidence-based practice, documentation and referral, patient safety, nursing process, patient assessment, and infection control. A significant overall mean difference was identified between importance and performance for all eight factors, with emergency care showing the largest difference. It was also ranked the highest priority for continuing education in the importance-performance analysis matrix. Therefore, simulation-based training should focus on enhancing emergency care competence for GI endoscopy nurses to improve patient safety and quality of care.
