Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Hospital-acquired infections constitute a significant source of morbidity and mortality for both patients and healthcare professionals. Nursing professionals constitute an integral component of any quality-related program in a hospital, given their oversight and provision of nearly all healthcare services. Nurses\' knowledge and attitudes play a significant role in healthcare delivery. Within Saudi Arabia, the prevalence of hospital-acquired infections in hospital settings has prompted a growing emphasis on evaluating nursing knowledge and adherence to practice standards aimed at hospital-acquired infection prevention.
UNASSIGNED: This single-center cross-sectional study was conducted at the emergency department of King Faisal Medical Complex, Taif, between October and December 2022, involving 168 nurses. The study utilized a pre-validated structured online questionnaire comprising three sections: demographics, knowledge assessment, and practice evaluation. Knowledge and practice levels were categorized as good, moderate, and poor using quartiles.
UNASSIGNED: The study encompassed 168 nurses employed in the emergency department of the hospital, revealing their proficiency in standard practices for preventing hospital-acquired infections. Notably, 63.8% of participants demonstrated a commendable \"Good\" level of knowledge, while 10.6% exhibited a \"Moderate\" level and 25.5% manifested a \"Poor\" level in terms of knowledge. Similarly, concerning practice levels, 56.4% showcased a commendable \"Good\" practice level, 22.3% maintained a \"Moderate\" practice level, and 21.3% presented a \"Poor\" practice level. Chi-square analysis unveiled a significant association between age and knowledge levels (p = 0.000). In addition, age (p = 0.000) and years of clinical experience (p = 0.000) were significantly linked to nurses\' practice levels The nurses aged 40-50 years (82%) and those with 10-15 years of clinical experience (83.3%) showed good levels of knowledge and practice, respectively. Overall, most of the nurses demonstrated effective knowledge and compliance with infection prevention practices.
UNASSIGNED: Sociodemographic factors such as age and clinical experience exert a notable impact on nurses\' knowledge and practices regarding hospital-acquired infections.

摘要：
■医院获得性感染是患者和医疗保健专业人员发病率和死亡率的重要来源。护理专业人员构成医院任何质量相关计划的组成部分，考虑到他们对几乎所有医疗服务的监督和提供。护士的知识和态度在医疗保健服务中起着重要作用。在沙特阿拉伯，医院环境中医院获得性感染的患病率促使人们越来越重视评估旨在预防医院获得性感染的护理知识和实践标准的依从性.
■这项单中心横断面研究是在费萨尔国王医疗中心的急诊科进行的，Taif,2022年10月至12月，涉及168名护士。该研究利用了预先验证的结构化在线问卷，包括三个部分：人口统计，知识评估，和实践评估。知识和实践水平被归类为良好，中度,和可怜的使用四分位数。
■该研究涵盖了医院急诊科的168名护士，揭示他们对预防医院获得性感染的标准做法的熟练程度。值得注意的是,63.8%的参与者表现出值得称赞的“良好”知识水平，10.6%的人在知识方面表现出“中等”水平，25.5%的人表现出“差”水平。同样，关于实践水平，56.4%的人表现出了值得称赞的“良好”实践水平，22.3%保持“适度”的实践水平，21.3%的人表现出“差”的练习水平。卡方分析揭示了年龄和知识水平之间的显着关联（p=0.000）。此外,年龄（p=0.000）和临床经验年限（p=0.000）与护士的实践水平显着相关40-50岁（82％）和具有10-15年临床经验的护士（83.3％）显示出良好的知识和实践水平，分别。总的来说,大多数护士表现出有效的知识和对感染预防措施的依从性。
年龄和临床经验等社会人口统计学因素对护士关于医院获得性感染的知识和实践产生显著影响。
