背景资料：研究目的：本研究旨在发展一套病人隐私量表，以评估护理人员在工作场所是否遵守或侵犯病人隐私权。研究设计：本研究为一方法论和描述性研究。参与者和研究背景：参加者是在土耳其伊斯坦布尔私人医院和卫生部附属医院工作的354名护士。采用问卷调查的方法收集资料，包括护士的人口学特征、对患者隐私的看法和患者隐私量表。伦理学考虑：在得到医院最高管理层的许可后，将研究的信息提供给护士。那些愿意参加被告知，参与是自愿的，并邀请给予书面同意之前datacollection.Findings：量表的内容效度指数为0.91，Cronbach的α为0.93，斯皮尔曼-布朗和Guttman系数为0.85，上，下27%的测试是-29.65，和项目总的相关值范围为0.47到0.71。该量表有五个分量表。此外，49%的护士表示，他们的服务/单位始终遵守患者隐私。他们对总量表的平均评分为4.51 +/- 0.49，个人信息和私人生活的保密性为4.39 +/- 0.61，性隐私为4.39 +/- 0.70，无法保护自己的隐私为4.56 +/- 0.57，身体隐私为4.60 +/- 0.59，4.60 +/- 0.52，以确保良好的环境。讨论：本研究的结果与一些国际研究的结果形成对比，这些研究确定侵犯了患者隐私。结论：病人隐私量表是一个有效和可靠的工具，可以收集护士是否观察或侵犯病人隐私的数据，护士普遍报告在所有医院，特别是私立医院观察或注意病人隐私。
Background: The developments in technology and communication channels, increasing workload, and carelessness cause problems regarding patient privacy and confidentiality in nursing services.Research objectives: The study was conducted to develop a patient privacy scale to identify whether nurses observe or violate patient privacy at workplace.Research design: This research was a methodological and descriptive study.Participants and research context: Participants were 354 nurses working at private hospitals and hospitals affiliated with the Ministry of Health in Istanbul/Turkey. Data were collected with a questionnaire about the demographic characteristics of nurses and their opinions about patient privacy and with patient privacy scale.Ethical considerations: After getting permission from the top management of hospitals, information about the study was given to nurses. Those willing to participate were informed that participation was voluntary and invited to give written consent before data collection.Findings: The content validity index of scale was 0.91, Cronbach's alpha was 0.93, Spearman-Brown and Guttman coefficients were 0.85, the upper and lower 27% test was -29.65, and item-total correlation values ranged from 0.47 to 0.71. The scale had five subscales. In addition, 49% of the nurses stated that patient privacy was always observed in their services/units. They appraised with a mean score of 4.51 +/- 0.49 for the total scale, 4.39 +/- 0.61 for confidentiality of personal information and private life, 4.39 +/- 0.70 for sexual privacy, 4.56 +/- 0.57 for the privacy of those unable to protect themselves, 4.60 +/- 0.59 for physical privacy, and 4.60 +/- 0.52 for ensuring a favorable environment.Discussion: The findings of this study were in contrast with the results of some international studies which determined the violation of the patient privacy.Conclusion: The patient privacy scale is a valid and reliable tool to collect data on whether nurses observe or violate patient privacy, and the nurses generally reported observing or paying attention to patient privacy in all hospitals and especially private hospitals.
