Factors related to nurse compliance in monitoring infusion fluid in hospital.

Infusion therapy involves the intravenous administration of drugs, fluids, and blood products to hospitalized clients. This study aimed to identify factors influencing nurse compliance in monitoring infusion fluids according to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). The research adopted a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design and a cross-sectional approach, focusing on a study population of 50 nurses. Data collection utilized observation techniques and questionnaires as research instruments, with the analysis employing Kendall's Tau B and Kendall's Tau C methods. The findings revealed significant correlations between age (p-value=0.000), education (p-value=0.006), career path level (p-value=0.013), and knowledge (p-value=0.011). However, there was no significant relationship between the length of work experience and nurse compliance in monitoring infusion fluids (p-value=0.257) according to SOPs in this private hospital. To enhance the quality of care, it is recommended that nurses receive additional training provided by the nursing education team at the hospital, focusing specifically on the monitoring of infusion fluids. This targeted training could contribute to reducing instances of complaints related to mismatched patient needs and ultimately improve compliance with established SOPs in infusion therapy.
