Analisis Faktor Karakteristik Perawat yang Berhubungan dengan Respon Time: Uji Korelasi

Introduction

Analisis faktor karakteristik perawat yang berhubungan dengan respon time: uji korelasi. Studi korelasi karakteristik perawat seperti usia, pendidikan, masa kerja, dan beban kerja dengan respon time di IGD. Pahami kecepatan tanggap darurat medis.

Abstract

Emergency response time (response time) is very important in the emergency room to determine the next step. Response time is the response of medical personnel in handling patients from the time the patient arrives to get service and is completed within 5 minutes. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there was a correlation between the characteristics of nurses and response time so that the research design used ainailitik suirvey with pendekaitain yaing diguinaikain cross sectionail, The sample in the study were emergency room nurses who were not on major leave and willing to be respondents using a total sampling technique of 30 respondents. Instruments using questionnaires and observation sheets. The results showed that the majority of respondents were male by 62.1%, most of the last education was Diploma of Nursing by 65.5%, the majority of respondents had a work period of more than 3 years by 96.6%, workload with a percentage of 51.7%, response time with a fast category of 75.9. The results of the correlation test obtained from several characteristics that have a relationship are skills with workload with a P value of 0.00 and age with workload with a P value of 0.00. The conclusion is that there is a relationship between nurse characteristic factors with skill and age factors, and there is no relationship between nurse characteristic factors with response time including, gender, workload, tenure, education.

Review

This study endeavors to analyze the correlation between various nurse characteristics and emergency response time, a critical metric in acute care settings. The authors rightly highlight the importance of prompt action in the emergency room, defining response time as the completion of service within five minutes of patient arrival. Employing an analytical survey with a cross-sectional design and a total sample of 30 emergency room nurses, the research provides valuable descriptive insights into the demographic profile of the nursing staff, including gender, education, and work experience. The initial findings suggest that the majority of observed response times were fast, which is a positive indication of departmental efficiency. Furthermore, the study presents intriguing correlations between skills and workload, and age and workload, hinting at complex interactions within the nursing environment. However, the abstract presents a significant disconnect between its stated objective and the reported correlational findings. The primary aim was to determine the correlation between nurse characteristics and *response time*, yet the only significant correlations identified were between skills *with workload* and age *with workload*, not directly with response time. Critically, the conclusion explicitly states "there is no relationship between nurse characteristic factors with response time including, gender, workload, tenure, education." This indicates that the core hypothesis regarding response time was largely unsupported by the data. The sample size of 30 respondents, while manageable for an exploratory study, might be insufficient to detect subtle correlations or provide robust statistical power for the multiple variables examined. Additionally, some descriptive reporting, such as "workload with a percentage of 51.7%", lacks clear contextualization, making interpretation challenging without further detail. Despite the unconfirmed primary hypothesis regarding response time, this study offers foundational insights into other interconnected factors influencing emergency nursing. The findings that skills and age correlate with workload provide a useful starting point for understanding staffing and professional development needs, even if these do not directly translate to response time in this specific analysis. For future work, it would be beneficial to expand the sample size to enhance statistical power and explore potential mediating or moderating variables. Furthermore, a clearer articulation in the abstract regarding the specific relationships found (i.e., skill/age with workload) versus the absence of a direct relationship with response time would improve the clarity of the study's contributions. Overall, while the direct link to response time remains elusive here, the study sparks important questions about the multifaceted nature of emergency care delivery and the factors shaping nurses' operational efficiency.
