한국어 초록

최근 병원감염에서 가장 주목받는 내성균 중의 하나인 반
코마이신 내성 장구균(Vancomycin-resistant enterococcus
[VRE], Broadhead, Parra, & Skelton, 2001)은 감염에
취약한 중환자가 많은 대형 병원뿐 아니라 모든 규모의 병원
에서 분리되고 있으며 2003년 중환자실 병원감염 빈도의
28.5%를 차지하는 것으로 미국 질병관리본부는 보고하고 있
다(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2004).
국내에서도 2004년 12개 종합병원에서 분리된 Enterococcus
faecium의 20%가 반코마이신 내성균일 정도로 심각한
감염률을 보이고 있다(Korean Society for Nosocomial Infection
Control, 2006).

영어 초록

The purpose of this study was to identify the influence of Vancomycin-resistant enterococcus (VRE) knowledge
and awareness with VRE infection control in compliance with VRE infection control among nurses in intensive care
units. Method: Participants (N=154) were recruited in B city from August 2007 to October 2007. Data were analyzed
with SPSS PC+. Result: The degree of VRE knowledge of the participants was 12.41 out of the total score, 17; that of
awareness with VRE infection control was 3.87 out of the total score, 4; that of compliance with VRE infection control
3.75 out of the perfect score, 4. A significantly positive relationship between awareness of VRE infection control and compliance
with VRE infection control has been observed. Awareness with VRE infection control and type of intensive care
unitpredicted 21.1% of the variance in compliance with VRE infection control. Conclusion: The study indicated that
awareness with VRE infection control has the most important impact on the compliance with VRE infection control for
the participants. Based on the finding, a suggestion is made to continue the research on VRE knowledge and nosocomical
infection on the subject of nurse and nurse managers who are responsible for infection control in a medical institution.
