Özet

Aims: This study aimed to determine the attitudes of healthcare personnel working in surgical services towards the use of gloves and whether these attitudes differ according to sociodemographic characteristics. Methods: This was a descriptive study conducted on healthcare personnel working in the surgical services of a training and research hospital. The ‘’Attitude Scale for the Use of Gloves-ASUG’’ was used to collect data. Results: A total of 347 healthcare personnel participated in the study. Of the participants, 56.2% were female, 61.7% were married, 43.8% were under the age of 30, 66.9% were university graduates, 42.9% were nurses, and 44.7% had professional experience of over 11 years. Mean ASUG score was 44.55 ± 5.59. We detected significant differences in glove use according to participants’ gender, education level and occupation (p<0.05). Conclusions: Attitudes of healthcare personnel towards the use of gloves were found positive in this study. Training on the use of gloves should be prioritized for healthcare personnel, especially for the health technicians and fellows.
