Abstract Uvod: Transplantacija organa pripada skupini suvremenih metoda kirurškog liječenja pacijenata putem nadomještanja organa ili tkiva kojima je dijagnosticirano otkazivanje ili potpuni prestanak funkcija. Definira se kao kirurški zahvat presađivanja organa ili tkiva iz jednog organizma u drugi. Uključuje postupke poput darivanja i dobivanja, testiranja, očuvanja, pohrane, dodjele i distribucije organa i tkiva. Cilj: Ispitati znanja i stavove medicinskih sestara zaposlenih u Općoj bolnici Zadar o darivanju organa. Materijali i metode: U istraživanju su sudjelovale medicinske sestre i medicinski tehničari zaposleni u Općoj bolnici Zadar. Instrument koji je korišten u ovom istraživanju osim upitnika o općim demografskim podatcima, su čestice preuzete iz standardiziranog upitnika koji su osmislili Chung i suradnici (2008). Istraživanje je provedeno presječno, online putem Google forms obrasca u vremenskom razdoblju od srpnja do rujna 2023. godine. Rezultati: U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 119 ispitanika ženskog spola i 15 ispitanika muškog spola. Utvrđen je veći broj pozitivnih stavova u odnosu na negativne stavove i veći broj netočnih odgovora u odnosu na točne odgovore o darivanju organa kod medicinskih sestara i tehničara Opće bolnice Zadar. Nije utvrđena statistički značajna razlika u znanju o darivanju organa s obzirom na spol, dob, bračni status i razinu obrazovanja, dok je utvrđena statistički značajna razlika u znanju o darivanju organa na pojedinim česticama s obzirom na radno iskustvo i pohađanje edukacije o darivanju organa. Nije utvrđena statistički značajna razlika u stavovima o darivanju organa s obzirom na spol i bračni status, dok je utvrđena statistički značajna razlika u pojedinim stavovima medicinskih sestara i tehničara o darivanju organa s obzirom na dob, razinu obrazovanja, radno iskustvo i pohađanje edukacije o darivanju organa. Utvrđena je statistički značajna pozitivna korelacija između stavova i znanja o darivanju organa. Zaključak: Temeljem zabilježenih rezultata utvrđen je općenito pozitivan stav i niža razina znanja medicinskih sestara i tehničara zaposlenih u Općoj bolnici Zadar o darivanju organa. Potrebna je edukacija medicinskih sestara i tehničara u svrhu kvalitetnijeg rada s pacijentima i razvijanja pozitivnih stavova o darivanju organa u široj javnosti.
Abstract (english) Introduction: Organ transplantation belongs to the group of modern methods of surgical treatment of patients through the replacement of organs or tissues that have been diagnosed with failure or complete cessation of functions. It is defined as the surgical procedure of transplanting an organ or tissue from one organism to another. It includes procedures such as donation and procurement, testing, preservation, storage, allocation and distribution of organs and tissues. Aim: To examine the knowledge and attitudes of nurses employed at Zadar General Hospital about organ donation. Materials and methods: Nurses and medical technicians employed at Zadar General Hospital participated in the research. The instrument used in this research, in addition to the questionnaire on general demographic data, are items taken from a standardized questionnaire designed by Chung et al. (2008). The research was conducted cross-sectionally, online via a Google forms form in the period from July to September 2023. Results: 119 female respondents and 15 male respondents participated in the research. A higher number of positive attitudes compared to negative attitudes and a higher number of incorrect answers compared to correct answers about organ donation among nurses and technicians of Zadar General Hospital were determined. No statistically significant difference was found in knowledge about organ donation with regard to gender, age, marital status and level of education, while a statistically significant difference was found in knowledge about organ donation in certain areas with regard to work experience and attending education about organ donation. No statistically significant difference was found in attitudes about organ donation with regard to gender and marital status, while a statistically significant difference was found in certain attitudes of nurses and technicians about organ donation with regard to age, level of education, work experience and attendance at organ donation education. A statistically significant positive correlation was found between attitudes and knowledge about organ donation. Conclusion: On the basis of the recorded results, a generally positive attitude and a lower level of knowledge of nurses and technicians employed at the Zadar General Hospital regarding organ donation was determined. Education of nurses and technicians is needed in order to improve the quality of work with patients and to develop positive attitudes about organ donation in the general public.
