摘要
This study was to translate the Pieper–Zulkowski pressure ulcer knowledge test (PZ-PUKT) into Traditional Chinese and evaluate its psychometric properties as well as identify the predictors of knowledge on pressure injury. The PZ-PUKT was translated into Traditional Chinese (TC-PZ-PUKT), and its content validity was evaluated. A total of 296 nurses participated in this study and completed the 72-item TC-PZ-PUKT online. The reliability of the TC-PZ-PUKT was analysed by evaluating its internal consistency and test–retest reliability. Hierarchical regression was used to determine factors associated with TC-PZ-PUKT scores. Content validity was achieved with a score of 0.986. Internal consistency was observed to be reliable, with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.858. The mean knowledge score on the TC-PZ-PUKT was 72.5%, with a 1-week test–retest reliability of r = 0.849. Education level, certification as a wound specialist and self-learning through reading articles, books or guidelines on pressure injury were significantly associated with TC-PZ-PUKT scores. The TC-PZ-PUKT is a valid and reliable tool. Education level, certification as a wound specialist and self-learning regarding pressure injury are related to knowledge of pressure injury. © 2024 The Author(s).
