The Relationship Between Nurses Workload and Compliance with the Implementation of the Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP) Bundle in the Intensive Care Unit
Abstract
The latest data shows an increase of 35% in the case of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP). The incidence of VAP in the intensive care unit can be minimized with a bundle of VAP. The success of the bundle VAP can be achieved through compliance in maintenance. The nursing profession tends to have a high workload, which can have a negative impact on patient care. This study aims to identify the relationship between the nurses' workload and compliance with the implementation of the Bundle VAP in the intensive care unit. This research method uses a quantitative approach with cross-sectional designs. The sampling technique uses a total sampling with a total sample of 38 intensive room nurses. The data collection method in this research is an online questionnaire consisting of the NASA-TLX questionnaire and the VAP bundle implementation compliance questionnaire. The results of Chi Square's analysis showed a significant relationship between the nurse's workload and compliance with the implementation of the Bundle VAP in the intensive care unit with a sig. Value of 0.000 (P<0.05). Nurses with a high workload have a higher risk of not complying with the implementation of the VAP bundle than nurses with a medium workload. Efforts are needed to improve the VAP prevention training program, provide education for managing workloads, and create a strong teamwork culture.
